BTJ to anchor outside X role as Jaguars revamp passing attack
NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe expects Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. to line up as the outside X in the 2026 offense, with Parker Washington likely in the slot and Jakobi Meyers and Travis Hunter competing for flank duties. Wolfe notes BTJ’s strength on vertical routes and beating man coverage, drawing comparisons to Brandin Cooks and Sammy Watkins in LA; Washington is projected as the No. 1 target, while Coen’s Rams-inspired system could maximize BTJ’s big-play upside amid a crowded WR group.
