Brian Thomas Jr.'s benching could open the door for Miami to land a talented young receiver at a bargain price and strengthen its future offense.

Phin Phanatic argues that the Miami Dolphins should pursue a trade for Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. following his recent decline in playing time. Writer Dante Walker points out that Thomas Jr. was benched for the entire second half of Jacksonville's Week 6 loss to the Houston Texans in London, prompting questions about his future with the team.
Walker suggests Thomas Jr. would represent a high-upside, buy-low trade target for Miami general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan. The receiver recorded 1,282 yards as a rookie in 2024 under Trevor Lawrence, but his target share has significantly declined in head coach Liam Coen's offense.
