Jaguars' Brian Thomas Jr. trade rumors get big update from NFL insider
This is a significant update in the Brian Thomas Jr. trade rumor saga.
The Jacksonville Jaguars are currently 4-1 after winning their Week 5 game in London, and they are leading the AFC South. They are poised to extend their lead in the division with their upcoming match against the Houston Texans. However, the Texans have recently acquired Marvin Harrison Jr., which has sparked further trade rumors involving Jaguars' wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. ESPN NFL insider Dan Graziano has put an end to the Thomas trade rumors, stating that the Jaguars have no intention of moving him.
Graziano notes that despite falling to third in the WR rankings behind Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers, and Josh Cameron, Thomas remains a valuable asset for the Jaguars' offense. He is a significant downfield threat and a crucial backup option in case another wide receiver is injured. The Jaguars have a strong chance of making the playoffs and potentially reaching the Super Bowl, so there is no compelling reason for them to trade Thomas.
Unless a team like the San Francisco 49ers becomes desperate, it is unlikely that Brian Thomas Jr. will be traded this season.
