The Jacksonville Jaguars acquired wide receiver Jakobi Meyers from the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for fourth- and sixth-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, multiple media outlets reported on Tuesday.

The trade provides a change of scenery for Meyers, who said he met with the Raiders' brass before the start of the regular season and asked for a trade. He said they told him 'no.'

Meyers, who turns 29 on Sunday, has a $10.5 million base salary in 2025 but no guaranteed money remaining on his three-year deal that can be voided after this season.

He has 33 catches for 352 yards in seven games this season.

Meyers joins a Jacksonville team that saw rookie wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter placed on injured reserve with a non-contact knee injury. Brian Thomas Jr. has endured a pronounced swoon since his stellar rookie year for the Jaguars, who also have Parker Washington, Dyami Brown and Tim Patrick as wide receivers.

Meyers became the No. 1 wide receiver for the Raiders following the October 2024 trade of Davante Adams to the New York Jets. He caught 87 passes for 1,027 yards and four touchdowns last season.

Meyers has 426 receptions for 4,944 yards and 20 TDs in 98 career games (76 starts) with the New England Patriots (2019-22) and Raiders.
