From the episode

He's going to be, we get Parker Washington. We can't have BTJ wide receiver 52 on the week. He's just playing like the sacrificial X right now. And it's just tough to put him in a lineup. I, I am hard pressed to put Brian Thomas, Jr. in a lineup.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

BTJ relegated to sacrificial role; hard to justify as WR5 in dynasty.

The source describes Brian Thomas Jr. as playing the 'sacrificial X' role and is hard-pressed to roster him as a wide receiver five in a five-start dynasty league, indicating limited offensive role and usage despite his draft capital.
