Brian Thomas Jr. has been at the center of so many trade rumors as the 2026 deadline approaches on Tuesday. Given his struggles and being buried on the Jacksonville Jaguars depth chart, it makes a lot of sense for a receiver-starved team to deal for a former first-round pick who is two seasons removed from a 1,282-yard, 10-TD year.
So what's the latest there? It turns out, per a report from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, the Jags -- who made two huge moves on Tuesday to improve their defense -- are keeping him, and are keeping "its roster intact, barring a surprise."
That last sentence carries a lot of weight. Is this a way of indicating that the Jaguars need a big offer to change their mind? We'll see soon enough.
