Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. snagged an 85-yard catch-and-run TD in Sunday's victory over the Colts. That play drove his 5-122-1 line, the first 100-yard game of his career. WR Christian Kirk drew just 4 targets but caught them all for 88 yards. WR Gabe Davis also threw 4 targets, catching three for 38 yards and losing a fumble.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Thomas has caught 5+ passes in three straight games, delivered 86+ yards in three of the past four contests, and scored in two straight.

Despite a struggling pass offense overall, Thomas has already become a guy you should try to get into your fantasy lineups.

A Week 6 trip to Chicago might challenge that. The Bears entered Week 5 as the fourth-best pass defense by DVOA.

After that comes home dates with New England and Green Bay, and then a visit to Philadelphia.
