Deon Jackson
Lions' share of touches in loss
Jackson rushed 17 times for 57 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for no gain during the Defenders' 16-10 loss to the Battlehawks in Week 1.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Jackson served as the clear lead back in the Defenders' ground attack, with Abram Smith logging just a single rush attempt. Jackson picked up where he left off in the Defenders' 2025 championship season, grinding out some tough yards and find the end zone from one yard out late in the first quarter. Jackson should continue in a high-volume role in a Week 2 road matchup against the Aviators on Friday night.
