Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. comes in at No. 61 on the NFL Top 100 list.
The second-year star out of LSU was voted by players throughout the NFL, and his production earned him a spot in the Top 100. Thomas is the second Jaguars player to be featured on the list after Josh Hines-Allen was placed No. 63 on the list. He also finished six places higher than his college teammate Malik Nabers (67).
Thomas had a spectacular rookie season, finishing with 87 receptions, 1,282 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns, all Jaguars rookie records. His 1,282 receiving yards were third-most in the league, and he averaged 14.7 yards a reception, which ranked 16th in the league. He shattered the previous Jaguars rookie receiving yards record, which was previously held by Justin Blackmon at 865 in 2012.
Thomas' season earned him a pro bowl selection in his rookie year, as well as finishing fourth in the Offensive Rookie of the Year voting.
“He's great, he's kind of that silent assassin," Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence said this week. "He just goes to work. That's one thing I love about him. He's not a big ego, look-at-me guy. He just goes and puts the work in and makes plays. His speed, his one-on-one ability, it's really impressive."
The Jaguars selected Thomas 23rd overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. Three receivers — Marvin Harrison Jr., Nabers and Rome Odunze — were selected in front of him.
At LSU, he finished his career with 127 receptions, 1,187 receiving yards and 24 touchdowns; 17 of Thomas' 24 career touchdowns came during his final season in college.
Thomas enters his second season as the No. 1 wide receiver on the Jaguars' depth chart. He enters with new co-stars in rookie Travis Hunter and free agent signee Dyami Brown.
