    Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Will be limited in practice this week

    Coach Liam Coen said Monday that Thomas (shoulder) will be limited in practice this week, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.Thomas was briefly forced from Sunday's win over the Browns but was able to return and finished with three catches for 40 yards on three targets. Coen expects Thomas to play next Sunday against the Broncos despite the shoulder issue, but the matchup will be much tougher on paper. Behind Parker Washington in the pecking order for targets, Thomas is shaping up as a WR4 fantasy bet moving forward.

    Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Three catches in Week 1 win

    Thomas brought in all three targets for 40 yards in the Jacksonville Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Jacksonville.Thomas was left out of the fun when it came to Trevor Lawrence's four touchdown passes, but the third-year wideout did finish tied for second in receiving yards and targets on the Jaguars while also serving as the runner-up in receptions. Thomas had an inconsistent first season in head coach Liam Coen's offense a year ago, but his efficient showing Sunday qualifies as an encouraging start for 2026 despite the modest yardage total. Thomas will have a formidable challenge on his hands next Sunday, however, as the Jaguars travel to Denver for a showdown against the stingy Broncos defense.

    Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Practices fully Tuesday

    Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said that Thomas (shoulder) was a "full go" at Tuesday's practice, Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union reports.Thomas injured his shoulder in a joint practice with the Buccaneers one week earlier, but he avoided a major scare and was back on the field a few days later while sporting a no-contact jersey. The wideout was seemingly able to shed that jersey and take some contact during Tuesday's session, so he looks like he'll be in the clear for the Jaguars' Sept. 13 season opener versus the Browns.

    Thomas (shoulder) was present on the field for Wednesday's joint practice with the Buccaneers while sporting a no-contact jersey, John Shipley of SI.com reports.Thomas made an early exit Tuesday for the first of two joint practices after falling on his shoulder while catching a touchdown pass in red-zone drills. Head coach Liam Coen said afterward that Thomas was "alright," though Coen indicated that the Jacksonville Jaguars would likely err on the side of caution and keep the receiver out for Friday's preseason finale versus Tampa Bay. Thomas' return to the field in a day later -- even in what appears to be a limited capacity -- is a good sign that he'll be ready to go for the Jaguars' Sept. 13 season opener versus the Browns.

    Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Preparing to serve as vertical threat

    The Jacksonville Jaguars envision Thomas serving as the 'X' receiver in their offense during the upcoming season, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.After an outstanding rookie campaign in which he put up a 87-1,282-10 receiving line on 133 targets over 17 contests, Thomas saw his production crater in Year 2 (48-707-2 line in 14 games). Though the Jacksonville offense took a step forward as a whole under first-year head coach Liam Coen, Thomas ended up sacrificing heavy target volume to Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington, who emerged as trusted weapons underneath and in the intermediate area for quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Wolfe notes that while the Jaguars value Thomas "a ton" and have no desire to trade him, the coaching staff learned last season that the wideout's strengths lie in using his blazing speed to run deep routes on the perimeter rather than taking contact on routes in the middle and shorter areas of the field. While that sort of role typically doesn't lend itself to consistently heavy target counts week to week, it's not one that's completely bereft of fantasy value. Wolfe cites Brandin Cooks -- whose tenure with the Rams overlapped with Coen's time as an assistant for the team -- as a player in a similar mold as Thomas who was able to turn in productive seasons on modest target volume while primarily serving as a vertical threat.

    Thomas has followed up his impressive spring with a good start to training camp, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com.That's an assessment shared by Jamal St. Cyr of News4JAX, who noted that Thomas continues to stack good days and came up with the catch of training camp during Monday morning's session. After seeing a dip in production in 2025 following his 87-1,282-10 line as a rookie the year prior, the third-year pro profiles as a bounce-back candidate this coming season, while working alongside fellow WRs Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers and Travis Hunter, provided he continues to build positive momentum as the summer rolls along.
