Carl Granderson Recovers Fumble On TNF

one year ago

New Orleans Saints edge rusher Carl Granderson made six tackles and recovered a fumble in the Saints' 24-31 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football. His tackle figure, including five solos, was healthy for a defensive lineman, and his fumble recovery will put him comfortably into double-digits in many IDP scoring formats. But those who were looking for the fifth-year breakout to make a sack were disappointed. Granderson has made 4.5 sacks this season, including one each in Weeks 5 and 6, but the Jaguars did not give up a single sack to the Saints. Still, Granderson is well on his way to setting a new career-high for sacks. Next week looks to be a more favorable matchup for him against the Indianapolis Colts.
