Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones was held to 56 yards receiving in the Vikings 20-10 victory on Sunday.
This was the wideout’s second-lowest total of the season, and his fewest since Week 4 against the Houston Texans.
Third-year CB Xavier Rhodes had the task of guarding one of the league’s top receivers for most of the game, and he did as good of a job as any defensive back who has been given this opportunity.
Rhodes was key to limiting Jones, writes Mark Craig of the Star Tribune.
