PHI WR DeSean Jackson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Atlanta
Welcome home, DeSean Jackson. The veteran wide receiver returned to Philly with a bang, Jackson caught eight passes for 154 yards and two touchdowns and probably had one of the more surprising performances of Week 1. Jackson's speed is still there despite being 32 years old.

The Eagles will face the Falcons on the road and Atlanta was 20th in aFPA to wide receivers after one week. This is a pretty good matchup for Philly and the Eagles passing game.

Jackson's fantasy stock skyrocketed after one game. He rates a high-end WR3 or flex for Week 2. Pick him up if he still available as he will have fantasy value with the only downside being all the weapons in Philadelphia are going to split up the riches,

PHI WR DeSean Jackson - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs Washington
DeSean Jackson is back in Philadelphia after spending several seasons with Washington and Tampa Bay. His last season with the Eagles was his best. He had 82 receptions for 1,332 yards and nine touchdowns. He has struggled to get close to those numbers the past several seasons, but the Eagles feel he will be effective stretching the field.

Jackson will face the Redskins who were 17th in aFPA to wide receivers in 2018. Although, we think Jackson will have an impact this season, he should be on the bench for Week 1. He is good depth and will have weeks where is in the lineup, but not in the opener.

PHI WR DeSean Jackson - 2019 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Desean Jackson returns to Philadelphia and should make an impact on the Eagles offense. Jackson has led the NFL in yard per catch four times during his career including last season, and Philly lacked that deep threat in 2018. He will serve as the No. 2 receiver and have many opportunities in the passing game.

Fantasy Downside
The Eagles offense revolves around the tight ends more than the wide receivers. Although Jackson will be on the field a lot, there are only so many balls to go around. His health and age also could be an issue as he has not played a full season since 2013. He will help the Eagles but only as a third or fourth option in the passing game.

2019 Bottom Line
Jackson should be drafted as depth only. His ADP is 115 and unless your league has a yard per catch category, he will be limited to 50 catches and 825 yards on the season. The main issue is Jackson’s role in the offense where he will be used to stretch the opposing defense in order to open things up for other receivers.

TB WR DeSean Jackson - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Dallas Cowboys

DeSean Jackson is expected back this week after missing the last three games. Jackson wasn't producing much before he left, so don't expect a triumphant return, especially in a tough matchup against the Cowboys. He still has game-breaking speed giving him a high ceiling, but his low floor makes him a risk. There's a chance someone between Chris Godwin, Adam Humphries and Jackson has a good game, but it's hard to know who. Jackson isn't much more than a WR4.

TB WR DeSean Jackson - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Jameis Winston vs. Carolina Panthers

DeSean Jackson had three 100-yard efforts in his first four games this season. However, his stats as of late have been very low (19 yards, 38, 67 and 32 in his last four games). Jackson was once a WR2 this season, but he's not much more than a WR5 this week against the Panthers, which is off the fantasy radar for most leagues.

TB WR DeSean Jackson - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. San Francisco 49ers

DeSean Jackson is questionable (thumb) for this week's game after he had a below-average effort in his last outing (4-38). Jackson started the year with three 100-yard games in his first four matchups, but has slowed down with three sub-40 games after.

He gets a decent matchup this week vs. the 49ers, but it's tough to predict which of Jackson, Chris Godwin or Adam Humphries will get most of the yards in this offense. Jackson is more of a WR3 option vs. San Francisco.

TB WR DeSean Jackson - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at New York Giants

DeSean Jackson saw a team-high (tied) eight targets last week, catching five of them for 67 yards. He's been more involved this season (693 yards), already beating out last year's total in receiving yards (668 yards). He also has more scores (4) than last year (3) on 17 less reception in five fewer games.

Jackson gets a tough matchup this week vs. the Giants as New York has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to WRs. He's had a bit of an up-and-down year, so it's tough to predict just how he'll finish, but we view him as a WR3.
