Julio Jones caught five passes for 48 yards on a team-high eight targets against the Saints in Week 13. The Falcons continued to run the ball well, and after the offense stalled in the second half, Jones didn't have much of a chance to make a huge impact.
Julio Jones stays quiet in fantasy against Saints on Thursday night

He led the team in receptions on Thursday night, besting Roddy White, who only hauled in a single catch.
Fantasy Impact: The huge games this season have come on the road for Jones, so it wasn’t a complete shock he finished with a mediocre night. He did drop one pass and nearly fumbled a second. Still, leading the team in targets looks good on his resume going forward.
Atlanta faces Carolina on the road next week. Jones will likely bounce back well for owners in the playoffs.
