DeSean Jackson Will Play Sunday
5 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that wide receiver DeSean Jackson (finger) will play in Week 1 on Sunday against the Redskins at home. Returning to the Eagles in 2019, D-Jax is looking to bounce back from a disappointing season in his final year in Tampa, although he still had a very productive 18.9 yards per catch on 41 receptions over 12 games. The 32-year-old is a boom/bust wideout that is more attractive in standard-scoring leagues. He has plenty of potential for big games in this potent offense, but the downfall is that the consistency of targets might not be there. Treat him as a WR3 in a great matchup with Washington in the opener.
