Steven Jackson Stays Healthy, Doesn’t Produce Much In Fantasy

Steven Jackson doesn’t do much, but at least he wasn’t hurt. We break down the fantasy implications.

Steven Jackson ran the ball 18 times for 51 yards and reeled in one catch for 12 yards in the win over the Seahawks.

Analysis: A 3.1 YPC isn't going to get done especially considering he had a 23-yard run in this game. Jackson's 18 carries were a featured load as backup Daryl Richardson saw just six carries. His fantasy value is pretty low by failing to rush the ball for more than 58 yards in any of his four games. His schedule isn't terrible and he's a bit of a buy-low option since his owners probably aren't happy with how he hasn't produced and will likely be on the injury report more often than not. It'll be tough sledding on Thursday against the Cardinals.
