By Cole Hartwell

Brian Thomas Jr. has gone catchless in his last two games, totaling five targets without a reception or a yard. He played zero snaps in the second half of Week 6, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN.

What happened

Thomas has five targets, zero receptions and zero yards over his last two games. In Week 6, he did not play a single snap in the second half.

Context

In Week 4, Thomas caught two passes for 17 yards and a touchdown. In Week 5, he had three targets and no receptions.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Thomas’ usage has cratered. He is not seeing targets or playing time, making him nearly impossible to start. His 5.1 PPR points per game and zero receptions in two straight games leave him as a drop candidate in most leagues. Washington and Meyers are the clear beneficiaries: Washington is the SWR1 on the depth chart and is averaging 16.3 PPR points per game, while Meyers has 9.5 PPR points per game. Thomas’ 16,710 adds in the last 24 hours and 70,375 drops in the same span suggest managers are actively moving on. If you roster Thomas, consider dropping him for a player with a clearer role.
