It took Pack Pro wide receiver Jakobi Meyers two games to find his footing with the Jacksonville Jaguars after a midseason trade. After posting eight receptions for 105 yards in his first pair of contests with his new squad, Meyers has found the end zone in each of his last three appearances with the AFC South team. 

Meyers, who caught four passes for 39 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars’ 36-19 win over the Indianapolis Colts this past weekend, has hauled in at least four receptions in each of his last trio of games with a score each. 

The Lithonia, Ga., native has now posted 22 receptions for 284 yards and three touchdowns in his first five games with the Jaguars. Meyers did not log a single score in the first seven games with the Las Vegas Raiders, and the change of scenery has appeared to be beneficial for the route runner. 

While Meyers is hitting his stride with the Jaguars, he wasn’t the only former NC State standout in action this past weekend. Here’s a look at how each Pack Pro fared in their respective NFL games in Week 14.
