Scouting report

LV WR DeSean Jackson - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at Kansas City Chiefs

DeSean Jackson was held to one catch and 14 yards last week against Washington. He’s always a threat for a big play, but it’s hard to know when it’s going to happen. As such, he’s too volatile to have on fantasy rosters at this point in his career. Leave him on waivers.

LV WR DeSean Jackson - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Washington Football Team

DeSean Jackson caught three of four balls for 102 yards and a touchdown against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. He has long catches of 56 yards and 38 yards in his three games with the Raiders so far, and he still has the ability to make plays downfield, despite turning 35 this week. Still, his production has been sporadic for years, and it’s difficult to trust him in lineups. We have him ranked outside starter territory, and he should be considered a massive boom-or-bust WR3 option at best.

LAR WR DeSean Jackson - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs Lions

With bye weeks come difficult decisions such as rostering and playing DeSean Jackson. He is fourth on the Rams in air yards but is only seeing an average of 2.3 targets per week. If you have to play Jackson this week, Godspeed.

LAR WR DeSean Jackson - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs Cardinals

Jackson had his best week as a Ram Week 3, collecting three catches for 120 yards and a score. His speed still plays as he showed his ability to run past defenders despite being 35 years old. A limited role may benefit the veteran in an effort to keep him healthy all season, but if he were to find a way to surpass Van Jefferson on the team’s depth chart he would be in consideration as a top 50 receiver weekly. Until then Jackson is more of a DFS target than a season-long option.

PHI WR DeSean Jackson - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Cincinnati
DeSean Jackson had a better Week 2 after being held to two receptions Week 1. Against the Rams, he had six catches for 64 yards. You might have been expecting those numbers to be his floor and hope they aren't his average. But QB Carson Wentz is struggling and still has trouble connecting with his receivers on a regular basis.

Jackson will face a Bengals who are 25th in aFPA to wide receivers. This might be a chance for the wide receivers to get some fantasy points considering the Cincy defense is still below average.

We haven't seen too much from Jackson yet and with the way the Eagles offense is designed, it's hard to trust he can be a consistent factor. Start Jackson for Week 3 because of the matchup but he only rates a WR3 or Flex against the Bengals.

PHI WR DeSean Jackson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs Los Angeles Rams
DeSean Jackson is the No. 1 wide receiver for the Eagles and even though he was targeted seven times, he ended up with only two receptions. The Philly offense wasn't good and even though Jackson got playing time, he couldn't connect with QB Carson Wentz enough.

Jackson will face the Rams who are eighth in aFPA to wide receivers. We don't expect much this week as CB Jalen Ramsey could make sure Jackson is not a factor. Keep Jackson on the bench for Week 2. The tight ends and running backs will be the offensive weapons who will benefit the most in this game.

PHI WR DeSean Jackson - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Washington
DeSean Jackson has a fast start in 2019 only to end up missing 13 games. The veteran receiver returned to Philly and was going to be a key part of the Eagles passing game, but had to watch QB Carson Wentz have a career season.

Jackson will face Washington who was 24th in aFPA to wide receivers. In one of the games he did play, was the opener against Washington where he had 8 catches for 154 yards and 2 touchdowns so the history is good.

It's hard to pick an Eagles receiver who will shine because the tight ends and running backs get so much attention. Jackson will have his moments and for Week 1, we rank him a low-end WR3 or Flex.
