ASHBURN, Va. -- Sometimes it’s easy to see the impact: Washington Redskins receiver DeSean Jackson sprinting past the safety, briefly fooled by a play fake. That’s when Jackson’s at his best, which is exactly what he was against the New York Giants last week. He punctuated the play with a 62-yard touchdown.
Other times it’s more subtle: Jackson again sprinting down field, only this time drawing the attention of two defenders and creating an opening in an area he vacated -- one that the Redskins turned into a 26-yard gain for tight end Jordan Reed.
