STM Take

A steady slot receiver who found a stable quarterback.

The case for

  • 468 career receptions on an undrafted pedigree; the slot-route case has been built across three franchises.
  • Year-over-year rank improvement (#158 in LV → #35 with JAX) shows the system fit matters.

The worry

  • Age 29 with no Pro Bowl selections; the career has been steady but never elite.
  • Recent game log peaks at 21.3 PPR (Wk 13) with a 2.2 PPR Week 19 closer; the floor games still come.

What to watch: Whether Lawrence's tier-3 jump holds in 2026 and lifts Meyers into a tier-4 finish or better as the JAX WR2.

Full take and bio

Meyers at STTM #35 tier 5 in 2025 reflects the mid-season Raiders-to-Jaguars trade; the late-2025 game log shows 21.3 PPR Week 13 and 15 PPR Week 12 immediately after the move. The 468 career catches at age 29 from an undrafted starting point is one of the league's deepest stories. Trevor Lawrence's tier-3 jump in 2025 finally gave him a stable QB tier.

Meyers was born in Lithonia, Georgia, attended Arabia Mountain, and played at NC State before signing with New England as an undrafted free agent in 2019. He spent four years with the Patriots, two with the Raiders, and was traded to Jacksonville mid-2025. Career line is 468 catches for 5,427 yards and 23 TDs across seven seasons.
