Jackson is elite in press man and has been really bad in off coverage, so it seems like a scheme issue. There were also rumors he simply didn't want to come back so it is what it is. 

Gotta use the tag in him or Lawson to avoid this mess... poor planning.

And if you draft a press man corner and use him in zone, then you have the wrong coaches not using their best players to their potential. 

Bengals being Bengals on both accounts.

He has 4 career picks and is coming in like our typical 1st round draft picks trying to recover from an injury. 

I'll say it again. Journeyman, coming off injury, these are not the terms you want associated with your marquee signings in FA, those are depth pieces you trade a 7th rounder for and hope they pan out.

This team had no plan... again. And Burrow and the fans get ******.
