Newsbreakers
October 25, 2009
Fred Jackson gained a mere two yards off five carries against Carolina on Sunday and failed to catch a single pass.

Our View:Marhshawn Lynch carried the ball 17 times, and while he wasn't too effective either, gaining 40 yards, he did at least find the end zone. Jackson has done very little since Lynch's return from suspension in Week 4, and while he should remain a part of Buffalo's offense to at least some extent, he'll probably need a Lynch injury before making for a good fantasy start anytime going forward.

Fred Jackson gained 48 yards on 14 carries in Week 6, but hobbled off the field in overtime.

Our View:He split duty in the game with Marshawn Lynch, but gave way in total carries when he was forced to leave the game. No word on the severity of the injury, but as long as he's sharing the backfield with Lynch, he's not a viable option in most leagues.

Fred Jackson will remain involved in the Bills' ground attack when Marshawn Lynch returns from his suspension this weekend, according to the Buffalo News. Head coach Dick Jauron said, "Going into the season, even in the offseason when we knew about Marshawn's suspension, I said, we have got to be careful with Fred because he is a really good player and we do not want to overload him. He had a lot of touches and did a great job. Now Marshawn is back and we will take some of that load off [Fred] and evenly distribute it because both those guys are good."

Our View:This is good news for fantasy owners of Jackson, but Lynch could also benefit with a lighter workload, as he would likely stay healthier over the course of the season.
September 27, 2009
The Saints held Fred Jackson in check a bit in Week 3. He rushed 18 times for 71 yards and caught four passes for 26 yards.

Our View:Nobody else showed up for the Bills offense, but Jackson still managed a decent yardage total. He has played well enough to continue having a large role even when Marshawn Lynch returns in Week 4.
September 22, 2009
According to the Buffalo News, Bills' offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt was asked if the word "backup" was likely to appear in front of the name of Fred Jackson again. Van Pelt replied, without hesitation, "No, I don't think so."

Our View:Jackson has been outstanding in his two games as the starter this season, and it looks like he will continue to see plenty of time when Marshawn Lynch returns from his suspension. This will obviously impact Lynch's fantasy value, but those of you who have Jackson shouldn't have to worry about dismissing him when Lynch returns.
