Brian Thomas Jr. Linked to the Jets
ESPN's Rich Cimini says to keep an eye on the New York Jets potentially trying to acquire Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. via trade. Cimini thought that the Jets would target wideout Michael Pittman Jr. from the Indianapolis Colts, but the Colts traded him to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday for a late-round draft pick. The Jets could really use a No. 2 wideout behind Garrett Wilson going into the 2026 season, and Thomas would definitely be a solid pickup as a WR for Gang Green. The 23-year-old former 23rd overall pick out of LSU in 2024 looked like a star his rookie season, catching 87 passes on 133 targets for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns. But he fell in Year 2, going for a 48-707-2 line in 14 regular-season contests. There's rebound potential for him in 2026, but that could be thrown out the window if he goes to the Jets, a team without a firm plan at quarterback right now.
