Sometimes it’s the veterans who end up surprising you during the NFL season. This year it was Desean Jackson, who came to the Las Vegas Raiders following the Henry Ruggs DUI incident, and he was a pretty decent substitute. Now that doesn’t mean he was able to reach the numbers that Ruggs probably would have, but the case could be made that Jackson was pulling his weight with the team.

While his time with Las Vegas was brief, he racked up 12 receptions for 252 yards and one touchdown. He was also a huge relief to Derek Carr, who was dealing with the aforementioned loss of Ruggs and an injury to a few of his other receivers. Again, Jackson might have gone to the Rams, but his time with the Raiders was definitely impactful.
