Julio Jones Active In Week 17
2 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones (knee) is officially active for Week 17 against the division-rival Carolina Panthers in a game with huge playoff implications. Meanwhile, fellow receiver Breshad Perriman is a healthy scratch. Jones missed some time with knee issues earlier this year and has been battling through a knee injury again late in the season. With the 33-year-old not at 100 percent, Russell Gage has really stepped up for the Bucs and has taken on a bigger role next to Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in recent weeks. Jones has two touchdowns on the year, but he hasn't surpassed five receptions or 69 yards in a single game in his first campaign in Tampa. Even in a pass-happy offense, Jones offers very little upside for fantasy managers, especially while not at 100 percent health.
