Quick fantasy outlook: Although DeSean Jackson signed a 5-year, $47mm contract extension before the 2012 season, in essence this season amounts to a contract year because his deal contains no guaranteed money after the 2013 season, and his $10.3mm salary in 2014 is onerous. The switch from Andy Reid to Chip Kelly bodes well for Jackson, who had struggled to regain Reid's confidence after a poor attitude and contract squabble in 2011. It seems a lifetime ago that Jackson was considered among the league's most dynamic playmakers, having made the Pro Bowl as both a receiver and returner. Of late, Jackson has struggled to stay on the field due to concussions, and has shown a lack of toughness at times while on the field. In spite of his mediocrity of late, Chip Kelly has spoken glowingly of Jackson and believes his versatility will be an ideal fit in the new spread offense. Expect Jackson to be used as a runner more than ever before, and he'll also return to his role as the team's punt returner. Whether Jackson can re-establish himself as a go to receiver lies as much in who quarterbacks the team as it does Jackson's abilities.
