Commanders expected to trade for Jaguars receiver Brian Thomas Jr

The Washington Commanders could pursue a trade for Brian Thomas Jr., a wide receiver from the Jacksonville Jaguars, as reported on October 29, 2026. With Terry McLaurin's season-ending injury, Washington is looking to strengthen its receiving corps. Thomas, a former first-round draft pick, has seen a decline in performance after a strong rookie season. The Jaguars, with a surplus of receivers, may consider trading Thomas before his value diminishes further. Close ties exist between Thomas and Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, which may facilitate the deal.
