Jakobi Meyers - Page 31 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Remains limited at practice Meyers (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Meyers was also limited in practices throughout the past week before missing a second straight game in Sunday's overtime loss to the Packers. At this stage, it's unclear if he'll be available for this weekend's game against the Lions. If Meyers is cleared to suit up, he may be catching from a different quarterback, as Mac Jones (ankle) could miss a second straight game, and veteran backup Brian Hoyer is still in the concussion protocol after exiting early Week 4. Rookie Bailey Zappe would be in line to make his first NFL start if neither Jones nor Hoyer is available.

Won't play Sunday Meyers (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Impact Now that Meyers is set to miss another game, DeVante Parker, Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne are in line to lead the Patriots' Week 4 wideout corps, with Lil'Jordan Humphrey also in the mix. With Mac Jones (ankle) ruled out this weekend, they'll be catching passes from backup quarterback Brian Hoyer, a context that makes the team's available pass catchers hit-or-miss fantasy options versus Green Bay.

Questionable for Week 4 Meyers (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact The report notes that Meyers, who was limited in practice this week, indicated that he's trending in the right direction and hopes to play this weekend after being inactive Week 3. If Meyers is able to suit up for Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET contest, he'd be catching passes from backup quarterback Brian Hoyer with Mac Jones (ankle) ruled out. In that context, Meyers would profile as a hit-or-miss fantasy option in a New England offense that could lean on the ground game Week 4.

Logs another limited practice Meyers (knee) remained limited at practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Meyers sat out the Patriots' Week 3 loss to the Ravens, but back-to-back limited practices -- albeit in a limited fashion -- offer hope that he could suit up Sunday against the Packers. That said, unless Meyers practices fully Friday, look for him to head into the weekend officially listed as questionable.

Limited at practice Meyers (knee) was listed as limited at Wednesday's practice.

Impact Meyers was inactive for this past Sunday's game against the Ravens after logging a limited practice Friday. With another limited session under his belt, it's possible that Meyers could return to action this weekend against the Packers, but he'll need to practice fully by the end of the week in order to avoid a Week 4 injury designation. In his absence against Baltimore, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor worked as New England's top wide receiver targets.

Additionally, New England's top tight ends (Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith) could also see added involvement in the team's Week 3 offense.

Questionable for Sunday's game Meyers (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens after returning to a limited practice Friday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Fortunately for those considering the Patriots' leading pass catcher in fantasy lineups, the team kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. If Meyers -- who has caught 13 of his 19 targets for 150 yards in two games -- ends up out or limited this weekend, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne and Lil'Jordan Humphrey would be candidates to see added opportunities versus Baltimore alongside fellow wide receiver Nelson Agholor. Meanwhile, the team's top tight ends (Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith) also could see added involvement in the team's offense Week 3.

Misses another practice Meyers (knee) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

Impact Back-to-back practice absences cloud Meyers' Week 3 status, but a return to the field Friday in any capacity could brighten his outlook on that front. If, however, Meyers is unable to suit up Sunday against the Ravens, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne and Lil'Jordan Humphrey would be candidates to see added opportunities versus Baltimore alongside fellow wide receiver Nelson Agholor.

Sits out practice Meyers (knee) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact In the Patriots' Week 2 win over the Steelers, Meyers logged 56 of a possible 68 snaps on offense, while catching a team-high nine passes for 95 yards on 13 targets. Leading up to Week 1 action, a knee issue limited Meyers' practice participation, so it's possible that his absence Wednesday could be maintenance-related. A return to the field in any capacity Thursday would support that notion and have the wideout trending toward active status this weekend against the Ravens.

Double-digit targets Meyers caught nine passes for 95 yards on 13 targets against Pittsburgh on Sunday.

Impact Meyers was less explosive than Nelson Agholor (six catches for 110 yards and one touchdown on six targets) but more than doubled Agholor's target volume. It's a reminder that Meyers is more of a floor player than a ceiling one, but if he keeps getting double-digit targets the truly big game will happen eventually.
