Fantasy Impact
By placing a second round tender on Jackson, the 25-year old CB would make $3.38M if he were to stay with the Patriots. Jackson is an emerging star for New England as he finished 2020 with nine interceptions and two fumbles, which was a takeaway record for any player under Bill Belichick. If any other team were to sign Jackson to an offer sheet the Patriots would have the ability to match.
