The Facts:
Jackson expects to remain Buffalo's starting RB unlike a year ago when he was expected to be a backup. "Right now, I feel like I'm the No. 1 guy and C.J. [Spiller] will come in and get a lot of plays," Jackson said. "I feel like I'm going to be the guy that's carrying the load and has got to make that running game go."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
After not starting the first four games, Jackson took over after Marshawn Lynch was traded to the Seahawks and was the main ball carrier ahead of Spiller. Jackson rushed for 927 yards and five touchdowns last season, averaging 4.2 yards per carry. He also caught 31 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Jackson also believes he'll do a better job getting the starting reps from the get go. "It does hurt to not get the reps, but as long as you mentally prepare like you are the No. 1 guy, you can hit the ground running," he explained. "Hopefully, now we can get those reps and go into this season as the No. 1 guys and put this team on our shoulders and make some plays."
