For DeSean Jackson to have a successful season in 2021, he must overcome the odds for a multitude of reasons. Number one, Jackson will be turning 35 in December, making him one of the oldest skill position players in the NFL. Number two, he must carve out a role for himself in a brand new offense, surrounded by younger players who have all been more productive than him over the last five years. And number three, Jackson must prove that he can stay healthy after missing 13 games in 2019 and 11 games in 2020.
If he can pull that off, then we’ll know for sure that Jackson’s miracle work can stretch far beyond the Meadowlands.
