Jaguars WR Travis Hunter sees increased role

Oct 20, 2025

Jaguars coach Liam Coen said earlier in the week that he needed to get Travis Hunter more involved in the offense, and the touchdown was a natural part of that. Hunter set career highs in targets (14), receptions (eight) and receiving yards (101) against the Rams. He also played just 12 snaps on defense, down from last week's 22.

"There definitely was a plan going into the game that we wanted to utilize him more on the offensive side of the ball, specifically trying to get the ball into his hands," Coen said. "Then the first half was just kind of funky the way we couldn't get anybody the ball consistently and get into a rhythm and then he was able to make some plays in the second half."

Fantasy Impact:

BTJ was dealing with the injury at the end of the game as well, and it remains to be seen what his status is going forward. But outside of one week, Thomas hasn't stood out and if the injury causes him to miss time, Hunter could have an even bigger role in the offense. It definitely seems the team is purposely trying to get Hunter the ball, which is good news for fantasy owners.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. misses second straight practice

For the second straight day, neither Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) nor Greg Dortch (chest) practiced today.

Related Players: Michael Wilson, Xavier Weaver, Trey McBride

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like we could be in for another Week sans MHJ, which is a massive boost for Michael Wilson. If the former were to miss, the latter can be considered up in WR2 range.

Commanders upgraded QB Jayden Daniels to a full participant at today’s practice.

He is trending in the right direction to start Sunday at Minnesota.

Related Players: Marcus Mariota

Fantasy Impact:

Looks as if Daniels is trending towards playing in Week 14, which would put him right back into the fantasy consciousness. We could potentially see a sophomore showdown between him and J.J. McCarthy, but there's also the possibility that neither ends up playing. We'll keep an eye on the situation as the week rolls along.

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown Active for TNF

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown, who did not practice this week due to an ankle sprain he suffered Thanksgiving Day vs. the Packers, officially is active tonight vs. the Cowboys — to the surprise and relief of his team.

Related Players: Jameson Williams, Isaac TeSlaa, Tom Kennedy

Fantasy Impact:

Wow. It was reported just hours ago that the realistic expectation is that ARSB wouldn't return until Week 15. Jameson Williams remains a must-play but we should probably temper expectations on St. Brown being in his usual target-hog role. He should still be started, but likely thought of as more of a WR2, even if he's on a snap count.
