Atlanta Falcons running back Steven Jackson is predictably having a sub-par season. The 31-year-old Jackson started the year with over 2,550 carries on his resume, and through eight games he's run the ball 95 times for only 345 yards (3.6 YPC) and three touchdowns. Last week, he saw his largest workload of the season but could only turn his 18 carries into 60 yards, though one of them did go for a score. The 60 yards were his highest rushing total of the season, and it he looks as if he doesn't have too much left in the tank.
Fantasy start/sit advice, Week 10: Steven Jackson not a recommended RB play
The Falcons running back has had a tough go of it this season. Can he step it up in Week 10?

Fantasy Impact: Jackson has a nice matchup this week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, whose front-seven allows the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing running backs. Since he can't find ways to pile up the yards or accomplish much as a receiver, Jackson is a touchdown-dependent RB3/Flex play and owners can likely do better.
