Jakobi Meyers: thumb leaves him limited Wednesday in Jacksonville

THE FACT. Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers practiced on a limited basis Wednesday with a thumb injury, according to NFL.com's roundup of Wednesday league news. Jacksonville listed him among a long group of limited participants to open the practice week.
THE VERDICT. A thumb injury on a receiver deserves more attention than a limited tag usually earns, because it follows him into the game and shows up in drops and contested catches. Redraft: still start him, but you want confirmation he practices fully by Friday. Dynasty: ignore it. DFS: fade in cash games until the Friday report clears him, and treat him as a leverage play only in large-field tournaments where the discount is real.
