From the episode

he is a key name to watch leading up to the deadline, mostly because there is significant interest in the player. Teams are hopeful and are sort of thinking that the Jacksonville Jaguars move on from Thomas because of his declining role in the last few weeks.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Thomas Jr.'s declining role makes him a likely trade candidate despite strong team interest.

Brian Thomas Jr. is a key name to watch at the trade deadline with significant interest from multiple teams including Kansas City Chiefs and Pittsburgh Steelers; however, his declining role in recent weeks has made Jacksonville willing to consider moving him, and the Jaguars likely won't make a move before their Sunday and Thursday games against Baltimore.
