Julio Jones targeted just 6 times as Falcons fall to Saints in overtime
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones caught 5 passes for 96 yards in Sunday's 37-43 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
What It Means:
Jones was targeted less than both Mohamed Sanu (7) and Calvin Ridley (8) for his lowest usage of the season thus far. Sanu found the endzone once, while Ridley stole the show with 3 touchdowns of his own. Jones has yet to score a touchdown this season, after finding the endzone just 3 times last season.
numberFire's models projected Jones for 17.2 FanDuel points and he finished shy of that mark with 12.1 in Week 3.
