BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: I bet you didn't think you'd hear this after the 2023 season, but the Jacksonville Jaguars have a juicy matchup against the Cleveland Browns defense in Week 2. After being one of the league's best defensive units last year, the defense fell apart in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys.

That gives Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. upside in Week 2, though he's far from a safe fantasy option.

Thomas caught all four of his targets in his NFL debut for 47 yards and a touchdown. He was on the field for 77% of the team's snaps, second to Gabe Davis among the team's wide receivers and ahead of Christian Kirk.
This should be a strong passing offense in 2024, but it's hard to view Thomas as more than a low-end WR3 play because of the presence of Kirk and Davis. Still, you could do worse as an upside option this week against Cleveland.
