Jacksonville Jaguars’ wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. has emerged on the team’s latest injury report as a significant concern. His name appeared for the first time in Week 9, where he was officially listed as limited due to a shoulder injury.
Brian Thomas Jr. Injury Details
During practice, Thomas Jr. was seen wearing a non-contact pinnie. This pattern of injury is not new for him; he had previously appeared on the report earlier this season due to a wrist injury.

This season has proven to be inconsistent for Thomas Jr. Despite receiving substantial attention with 55 targets, he has only secured 27 catches. Miscommunication with quarterback Trevor Lawrence and dropped passes have contributed to these challenges.

Despite these struggles, Trevor Lawrence expressed unwavering confidence in Thomas Jr.’s abilities. “I got all the confidence that he’s going to play really well and be just fine,” Lawrence stated.
Trade Rumors Dismissed
Over the weekend, Thomas Jr. was mentioned in a trading context, but Liam Coen quickly refuted any such possibilities.
Practice Status and Other Injuries
Thomas Jr.’s practice status will be closely observed over the next two days as the Jaguars prepare for their upcoming game. Other players on the injury report include:
- Quintin Morris (TE) – Limited due to groin injury
- Devin Lloyd (LB) – Limited due to calf injury
- Dyami Brown (WR) – Limited due to shoulder injury
- Eric Murray (S) – Did not participate (DNP) due to neck injury
- Tim Patrick (WR) – Limited due to groin injury
