DeSean Jackson facing advantageous matchup as Buccaneers take on Cardinals

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson is averaging 17.8 yards per reception this season heading into Week 6 versus the Arizona Cardinals.

What It Means:

As Field Yates points out on Twitter, the Cardinals have allowed an NFL-high 5 touchdown passes of 15-plus yards this season, meaning Jackson could find himself in prime scoring position in Week 6, especially if Patrick Peterson hones in on teammate Mike Evans. Jackson finished with a season-high 106 receiving yards in Week 5, but he's scored just once so far this year.

numberFire's models project Jackson to score 8.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,400 in Week 6. He's pegged for 6.6 targets, 3.5 receptions, 50.5 yards, and 0.30 touchdowns versus the Cardinals, making him the WR35 in our weekly fantasy rankings.
