Deacon Jones Award Update: Week 4

Robert Quinn may only have two sacks since week one, but yet he is still right up there in sacks one quarter of the way though the season. However, it only takes one week to climb up the rankings and the Rams play the Jaguars this week who have given up the most sacks in 2013 along with the Miami Dolphins with 18. However, for now, Justin Houston of the Kansas City Chiefs continues to impress as he shares the top spot with Robert Mathis. Here are the top ten standings for the Deacon Jones Award after week four.
