The Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Indianapolis Colts in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Jakobi Meyers.
Is Jakobi Meyers Playing in Week 14?
Meyers is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Jaguars’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Meyers in Week 14?
Usually, when a team acquires a player, you hear the same stuff. The organization will praise him as a person and what he can bring to the locker room, highlighting his versatility and hinting at a plan for him.
That wasn’t the case here.
Jacksonville brought in Meyers and said, “we are amazed at how often he catches the ball”.
That feels like a slight dig at the players in-house. Imagine you are a cook and being told that a company wants you because of how well you work with the stove. Or you’re a truck driver with a sense of direction that can be additive.
At some level, those things are to be accepted, not highlighted, right?
Regardless of how the addition was framed, he’s making good on it. He caught all six of his Trevor Lawnrece looks in Tennessee and has now seen his PPR point total increase each week he’s spent with the team.
- Week 10 at Texans: 7.1 points
- Week 11 vs. Chargers: 11.4 points
- Week 12 at Cardinals: 15 points
- Week 13 at Titans: 21.3 points
Meyers not only had the 50-yard catch to spike his yardage total, but he also earned a 37.5% target share in Brian Thomas’ return (ankle). I don’t think a target share at that level is here to stay, but the title of top target earner on this team very well could.
I have him ranked as a low-end WR2 for fantasy and WR1 for the Jags this week. As it turns out, catching the ball is good for business. Who knew??
