ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Jaguars won’t trade Brian Thomas, Jr. ahead of the NFL’s trade deadline.

10 November 2026

Fowler said the Jacksonville front office has told other teams they will not part ways with Thomas before today’s 4:00 eastern trade deadline. Thomas, 24, has been an afterthought in the Jaguars offense for much of the 2026 season after a down 2025 campaign. He’s run a route on 47 percent of the team’s drop backs while accounting for 9 percent of the team’s targets and 16 percent of the team’s air yards. Thomas has seen a target on 17 percent of his pass routes, the sixth highest rate among Jags pass catchers. Stuck in Jacksonville, Thomas will have some deep league value as a big play dependent wideout.
