Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Seven targets tie for team lead
Jakobi Meyers caught five of seven targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 48-20 win over the Jets.Meyers saw his touchdown streak end at three games, but he remained heavily involved, tying Brian Thomas for the team lead in targets while finishing two receiving yards shy of Travis Etienne's team-high total. Meyers is locked in as a key piece of a surging Jacksonville Jaguars offense that has averaged 33.3 points in six games since acquiring the veteran wide receiver in a trade with the Raiders. Denver's elite defense will try to slow Meyers and the Jaguars down in Week 16.

Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Earns 10 targets
Jakobi Meyers recorded four receptions on 10 targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts. He added three rushes for nine yards.Meyers continued to solidify himself as Trevor Lawrence's favorite target, and he took advantage of Parker Washington's (hip) absence to log his first double-digit target performance since Week 2. He was inefficient with the opportunity, though he did manage a 14-yard touchdown reception late in the first quarter -- his most impactful play in the blowout win. Meyers has now found the end zone in three straight games and has at least six targets in each of his last four contests.

Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Big performance against Titans
Jakobi Meyers recorded six receptions on six targets for 90 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-3 win over the Titans. He added one rush for three yards.Meyers continues to build rapport with Trevor Lawrence, and he was clearly the Jacksonville Jaguars' best receiver in Sunday's blowout win. He may have benefitted from the departure of Parker Washington (hip) with a few extra targets in the second half, though Meyers accounted for most of his production before Washington's absence. He caught a deep pass over the middle of the field late in the first quarter that went for 50 yards, and he capped off the same drive with a three-yard touchdown reception. Meyers also chipped in a 13-yard catch just before halftime to help set up a field goal, and he now has at least four receptions and 50 yards in each of his last three games while also finding the end zone in consecutive contests.

Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Scores first TD of season with JAX
Jakobi Meyers hauled in four of six targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win against Arizona.Meyers finally hit pay dirt with his first touchdown as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars since being traded from the Raiders on Nov. 4. It was also the veteran wideout's first touchdown of the season after being held scoreless over his previous nine appearances overall. Meyers has become more comfortable in Jacksonville's offense with each passing week, which should excite fantasy managers with thoughts of a strong run to close out the regular season. The 28-year-old will attempt to build off of this strong performance in a road tilt against Tennessee next Sunday.

Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Leads Jags wideouts in Week 11 win
Jakobi Meyers caught five passes (on six targets) for 64 yards during the Jacksonville Jaguars' 35-6 win over the Chargers on Sunday.In his second game in a Jaguars uniform, Meyers operated as the team's WR1 due to the absence of Brian Thomas (ankle). Meyers finished Sunday's contest leading both teams in receptions and yards, though it was Tim Patrick who hauled in the Jaguars' lone touchdown pass from Trevor Lawrence. Meyers has an 8-97-0 line (on nine targets) through his first two games as a Jaguar and has accumulated 38 catches (on 55 targets) for 416 yards through eight regular-season games. His volume will likely take a hit if Thomas is cleared to return for Jacksonville's Week 12 road clash against Arizona next Sunday.

Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Three grabs in Jags debut
Jakobi Meyers caught all three of his targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 36-29 loss to the Texans.Making his Jacksonville Jaguars debut after coming over from the Raiders at the trade deadline, Meyers had the longest reception of the day from Trevor Lawrence at 23 yards, but he was out-paced by Parker Washington in targets 7-3. Meyers will look to continue to build chemistry with his new QB in Week 11 against a familiar AFC West foe in the Chargers, and his volume should rise if Brian Thomas (ankle) remains sidelined for a second straight game.

Jaguars' Jakobi Meyers: Shipped to Jacksonville
The Jacksonville Jaguars acquired Jakobi Meyers from the Raiders on Tuesday in exchange for 2026 fourth- and sixth-round draft picks, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.A pending free agent, Meyers had made it clear that he wanted to be moved ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, and the Raiders were able to find a suitor willing to take on the remainder of the wideout's $5.25 million base salary. In Jacksonville, Meyers will fill the void at receiver left when No. 2 overall pick Travis Hunter (knee) landed on injured reserve last week. As was the case in Las Vegas during games in which tight end Brock Bowers was available, Meyers will face competition for targets with Jacksonville in the form of Brian Thomas (ankle), but there should be enough volume to go around for both wideouts to remain reasonably productive. Over his seven appearances for the Raiders this season, Meyers recorded 33 catches for 352 yards and no touchdowns on 49 targets.

Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Quiet in return Sunday
Jakobi Meyers (knee) finished with four receptions on six targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to the Jaguars.Meyers joined TE Brock Bowers (knee) in returning to action out of Las Vegas' Week 8 bye after both starters missed time with minor knee injuries. The 28-year-old Meyers was unable to sniff his teammate's ridiculous 12-127-3 receiving line, instead finishing with his lowest yardage output of the season. With no touchdowns in seven games, Meyers has been a bit of a disappointment through the first half of the fantasy campaign with a 33-342-0 receiving line. If the 2-6 Las Vegas Raiders do not move their top trade asset before Tuesday's deadline, Meyers' next appearance will come against the Broncos on Thursday Night Football in Week 10.

Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Full practice after bye week
Jakobi Meyers (knee) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.The Week 8 bye apparently did him good, following an absence for the Las Vegas Raiders' embarrassing Week 7 loss to Kansas City. There hasn't been much good to say about the Las Vegas offense this season, but QB Geno Smith will at least have his main weapons healthy for the first time in a long time when he faces the Jaguars this Sunday. TE Brock Bowers (knee) was also a full participant Wednesday.

Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Should be back after bye
Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Jakobi Meyers (knee/toe) and tight end Brock Bowers (knee) are both expected to return to action after the team's Week 8 bye, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.Meyers missed his first game of the season during Las Vegas' blowout 31-0 loss to the Chiefs in Week 7 while Bowers hasn't played since Week 4, but the Raiders anticipate having both pass catchers back in the lineup versus Jacksonville on Sunday, Nov. 2 in Week 9. Trade rumors have also surrounded Meyers in recent weeks, and back in late August he in fact requested to be dealt elsewhere by Las Vegas. The team's midseason respite could provide a space for the Raiders to explore options on that front prior to the NFL's trade deadline on Tuesday, Nov. 4, but as long as he remains on the roster, Meyers projects to resume handling his usual starting role moving forward.
