Outlook Brian Thomas
Brian Thomas Jr. Poised for Lead Role Against Cleveland
Brian Thomas Jr. is officially listed as questionable due to a shoulder issue suffered in late August, but coach Liam Coen reported he was a full participant in practice leading up to the opener. Operating as the Jaguars' primary perimeter target, Thomas is in prime position to lead this receiving corps. Be sure to check back before game time to confirm his active status.
While rostered in over 96% of leagues, fantasy managers have started him at just an 18% clip amid health uncertainty. Our models project roughly 11.3 fantasy points on about six targets and 50 receiving yards, making him a solid flex option with upside if he suits up.

Outlook Kaelon Black
Kaelon Black emerges as a bench stash in San Francisco's backfield
The rookie running back enters the season fully healthy after overcoming a training camp adductor issue, carving out a role behind superstar Christian McCaffrey alongside Jordan James. With Isaac Guerendo sidelined on reserve, Black solidified his standing on the depth chart through physical running between the tackles during preseason work.
Despite his roster rate climbing near 30%, Black carries no standalone value while McCaffrey handles the lead role. Our weekly projections expect minimal opportunity with around 3 to 4 carries for 15 rushing yards and a single target, keeping him strictly as a bench option or high-upside handcuff stash.
