Draft note

by John Paulsen

The Jaguars signed Thompson after hiring Jay Gruden to be their new offensive coordinator. Since 2016, Thompson has averaged 3.6 catches per game and has averaged 52 total yards per game. He’s a threat to steal passing down work from incumbent Leonard Fournette. Thompson will likely be an eight- to 12-point player in full PPR formats, when healthy.

Marrone: James Robinson not Jags' lead back

Andrew Siciliano

Sep 11 · 12:47 PM EDT

Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone "just spent 5 minutes casting doubt on the idea that James Robinson is his lead back and Chris Thompson is his change-of-pace option," according to Andrew Siciliano of NFL Network. "He said both backs are talented enough to handle any role."

Fantasy Impact:

Leave it to Doug Marrone to throw cold water on one of the hottest names in fantasy football. The running back situation is far from set in stone, but it is clear that Robinson and Thompson will see their fair share of work Week 1 and going forward.

JAX RB Chris Thompson - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Detroit Lions
Jacksonville played from behind yet again last week against the Texans, but Chris Thompson totaled only five touches and 42 yards. Gardner Minshew has passed at least 40 times the past four games with Thompson recording 35 receiving yards in each of the past two outings. However, he just isn’t seeing enough action to even warrant a fantasy roster spot.
