Taking A Look At DJax & Garcon - By The Numbers
Both Jackson & Garcon entered this season in contract years. Fans had expected at least one of them to put up huge numbers this year, even in an Offense that is stacked with other weapons like Reed, Crowder, & recently IR'd first round Draft pick Doctson. While it's seemed like neither has had their number called very much. Jackson had his biggest game in Week 3 against the Giants. Jackson caught 5 of 8 targets for 96 yards & a touchdown.

Garcon's biggest game isn't as black & white to pick out. He caught 5 of 7 for 59 yards in the same game against the Giants. Against the Ravens he was 5 out of 7 for 56 yards & his only touchdown of the season. Though his most yardage came against the Eagles catching 54.5% of his targets (6 of 11) for 77 yards. Only against the Steelers did he catch everything thrown his way going 6 for 6 for 51 yards.
