Dan Quinn: Julio Jones needs to be more involved in Falcons' offense
Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said Monday he is not satisfied with wide receiver Julio Jones' usage so far this season.
What It Means:
"No,'' Quinn said when asked if he's satisfied with Jones' workload through the first six weeks of the season. "No, I'm not.'' Jones is averaging 7.4 targets per game this season, but only 1 has come in the red zone and he remains without a touchdown heading into Week 7. Look for the Falcons to make an effort to get him going in a plus matchup with the New England Patriots this upcoming Sunday.
Jones ended with 10.2 FanDuel points after an original projection of 15.1 in Week 6. He's averaging 9.8 FanDuel points per game this season while recording 25 catches for 367 yards on 37 targets.
