Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Jakobi Meyers was a limited participant in practice Thursday, October 1, still battling that thumb injury. It’s a real bummer for anyone hoping to see him at full strength.
The Thumb Update We Didn’t Want
Look, this thumb issue for Meyers just isn’t going away quietly. He’s been limited for a while now, and Thursday was no different, according to Jaguars.com. It’s that kind of nagging injury that can really mess with a receiver’s confidence and ability to haul in tough passes, especially when you’re trying to snag a crucial ball in traffic.
What It Means For Game Day, and Your Bench
Even with the limitation, it sounds like he’s going to suit up this week. So you’ll probably see him out there, snagging a handful of targets. But don’t go thinking he’s suddenly a WR1, or even a solid flex play. We’re still talking about a guy who’s slotting in as a No. 4 or No. 5 receiver in fantasy leagues. He’s not going to be a game-breaker with this thing lingering. Keep an eye on Meyers this Sunday. Can he fight through this thumb injury and still make a solid impact? That’s the big question.
