Jakobi Meyers

Jakobi Meyers finished 2025 as the number 32 wide receiver in total PPR scoring and the number 37 wide receiver in PPR per game. Textbook flex-tier line — startable, ownable, but never the guy who wins you a week. Meyers landed in Jacksonville as the steady veteran intermediate target, and the role played out exactly as advertised: a high-volume, low-average-depth-of-target possession receiver on a 13-and-4 Trevor Lawrence offense that finished plus 32.7 in total offensive expected points added. He out-targeted Parker Washington and ran more snaps as the primary route-runner — but the touchdown ceiling never came. Three receiving scores on the year, for an offense that punched in 51 red-zone touchdowns. Meyers was the floor. Someone else got the points.

Now let's dig into the numbers, because they explain the gap between role and ranking. Meyers commanded a 23 percent target share and a 28 percent air yards share — genuine alpha-receiver marks on a per-route basis — and turned 110 targets into 75 catches for 835 yards and three scores. His total receiving expected points added came in at plus 10: solidly positive, not difference-making. His 282 yards after catch tell you this was a short-area role, not a vertical one. Per game, he averaged 11.0 PPR points, and the consistency was the story — steady floor, capped ceiling. He cleared 12 PPR points just five times in 16 games and never once cracked 22. The spikes — 21.3 against the Titans in Week 13, 17.7 against the Panthers in the opener — were exceptions, not the rule. The floor was real, hovering between roughly six and nine PPR points week after week. Usable bench piece on a contender. But the lack of spike weeks is why he finished outside the top 30 wide receivers per game despite a target share that should've placed him higher.

The play that captures the Meyers season: Week 12, third-and-six from the Arizona ten-yard line, third quarter, Jaguars down 14 to 10. Lawrence found him short left for a ten-yard touchdown — third-down conversion, red zone, worth nearly three expected points. That's the job description in one snap: trusted target on the money down, gets the ball where the chains and the goal line live. The frustration for fantasy managers is that those moments came in trickles, not floods. Three receiving touchdowns on the year — even a 23 percent target share couldn't push him into the weekly difference-maker tier.
