Thomas Jr. rekindled big-play ability; strengthens Jags' receiving depth for 2026.

Brian Thomas Jr. rekindled his big-play ability during Jacksonville's eight-game winning streak to close the 2025 regular season. His re-emergence as a reliable target contributed to the Jaguars' improved receiving corps, reducing the team's need to lean heavily on Travis Hunter as a wideout and supporting the decision to increase Hunter's defensive role in 2026.
