Even after piecing together the best season of his young career, defensive back J.C. Jackson is far from satisfied.
“I feel like I’m not even at my highest level yet,” Jackson said. “I’ve still got some room to improve and have some things I need to work on.”
After recording yet another interception in the Patriots’ 28-14 win over the New York Jets on Sunday, Jackson leapfrogged Asante Samuel to post the most takeaways in a season (11) during Bill Belichick’s time in New England. His nine interceptions on the year put him behind only Miami’s Xavien Howard for most interceptions in the league.
