Jakobi Meyers vs Parker Washington: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Jakobi Meyers finished the 2025 season at 8.6 PPG over 16 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars, while Parker Washington clocked in at 9.7 across 16 appearances for the Jacksonville Jaguars. A 1.1-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Jakobi Meyers turned 110 targets into 835 yards and 3 touchdowns, while Parker Washington converted 95 looks into 847 yards and 5 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One thing to note: both players share a Week 12 bye. That means you need a backup plan at wide receiver for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.
