As the NFL trade deadline approaches, there is one name the Jacksonville Jaguars were rumored to be taking inquiries about: wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. After a brilliant rookie season in 2024, Thomas has struggled in 2025, and some fans are already calling for the Jags to give up on him.
Yet that is something the Jaguars are not likely to do. As underwhelming as Thomas has been, he was on fire before. Head coach Liam Coen has openly said he still believes in his star wide receiver, and looking at his rookie stats, it's easy to see why; the 2024 first-round pick ended his rookie season with 82 catches for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns.
