Vincent Jackson only catches one ball. We break down the fantasy implications.
Vincent Jackson got the Morris Claiborne treatment and only caught one ball for 29 yards.
Analysis: There are two big stories here: Claiborne is a legit shutdown corner. He has locked up Hakeem Nicks and Vincent Jackson so far this season. Fantasy owners need to be aware of their WR taking on MC. MIke Jenkins was also solid in coverage. Secondly, Jackson is going to be inconsistent. He had a big game against the Giants in Week 2, but it was sandwiched by 47 yards in Week 1 and today's stinker. Josh Freeman really can't get the ball down the field with any level of proficiency. He'll be more of a low-level WR2 in fantasy leagues next week against the Redskins.
