Locker starts the season with a bang

by Rickey Brooksher | Mon, Sep 8th 6:13pm EDT

Jake Locker had a great season opener in Kansas City, completing 22 of his 33 passes for 266 yards and 2 touchdowns. Locker had zero turnovers while also rushing for 14 yards.

Fantasy Impact:

This is exactly what fantasy owners wanted to see from Locker in Ken Whisenhunt's system. He looked crisp and accurate throwing the ball from the pocket, and he didn't take any unnecessary hits when he scrambled. It's obvious Locker also has playmakers to deliver the ball to with Kendall Wright and Justin Hunter showing improvement. Locker could be a potential fantasy starter next week against the Cowboys lackluster defense at home.
