Spin: The Jaguars put a cap on Meyers' reps for the second day in a row, but head coach Liam Coen hasn't provided any indication that the wideout is at any real risk of sitting out Sunday's game against the Patriots while he continues to manage a right thumb injury that dates back to training camp. Meyers played through the thumb issue in the first two contests of the season, recording three catches for 68 yards and a touchdown on three targets.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: One of the league's most underrated players, Meyers is entering his first full season with Jacksonville after being acquired via trade in November. The 2019 UDFA has produced 800-plus receiving yards in five consecutive seasons while operating primarily as a short-to-intermediate target. More of a solid producer than a high-ceiling contributor, Meyers has finished no lower than 32nd in fantasy points over the last five seasons, but has yet to do better than 19th. The 29-year-old isn't much of a touchdown scorer (23 TDs in 78 games since 2021) and has substantial target competition via Parker Washington, Brian Thomas Jr., Brenton Strange and Travis Hunter. Meyers is a good player, but is likely to cap out as a flex option.
