Reports: Jaguars could deal WR Brian Thomas Jr.

By Thomson Reuters Mar 10, 2026 | 12:04 PM

Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. could be traded this offseason if general manager James Gladstone hears an ​offer to his liking, according to ‌reports.

Jacksonville selected Thomas No. 23 overall out of LSU before Gladstone and head coach Liam Coen were hired and was coming off of a ‌historically ​potent rookie season with 87 ⁠receptions for 1,282 ⁠yards and 10 touchdowns in 2024.

But last season was a different story.

Thomas tied for second in the NFL with 10 drops ​and his route-running and separation prowess touted by the previous regime wasn’t as ⁠evident. While Thomas encountered ⁠injuries, quarterback Trevor Lawrence established ​a better rapport with Parker Washington and the ​Jaguars traded for Raiders wide receiver Jakobi ‌Meyers in November.

Thomas missed three games and caught 48 passes for 707 yards and two touchdowns.

Since Gladwell was hired, he has ⁠made 10 trades. Five of them involved a wide receiver or a draft pick used to ⁠select a ‌wide receiver.

Teams reported to have ⁠interest in Thomas include the ​Cleveland ‌Browns and New England Patriots.

Gladwell executed ​two trades ⁠with the Browns last season, including the draft day bonanza to acquire Colorado wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter. The franchises swapped cornerbacks Tyson Campbell and Greg Newsome II in October.
