The Washington Redskins are set to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday and desperately need a win.

Check out the latest buzz below.

Jackson to be an X-Factor Against Bucs

The Redskins definitely need a win against Tampa Bay, and if they get one then Jackson will be a big part of it.

“The Buccaneers have yet to halt or even slow down a potent offense this season, and RG3 and Jackson are certain to exploit a questionable Buccaneers’ secondary on Sunday. RG3 should be sharper in his second start back and expect to see a heavy dose of Jackson, who is Washington’s X-factor in Week 11,” noted Rant Sports.

Jackson has been the one constant on offense despite getting throws from three different quarterbacks.

His 21.8 yards per catch leads every single player with at least 15 receptions this season, and is easily the team’s leading receiver.
