Adoree' Jackson Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Eagles vs Chargers game on Monday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 29, 2025
Makes five stops in Week 13 loss
Jackson compiled five tackles (four solo) Friday in a loss to the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Jackson's tackle total was his highest since he recorded seven stops against the Giants in Week 6. The veteran cornerback has played in 10 contests so far this season, tallying 38 tackles and six defensed passes.
Nov 25, 2025
Logs full practice Tuesday
Jackson (concussion) was a full participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left during the third quarter of Sunday's overtime loss to the Cowboys to be evaluated by medical staff for a possible concussion. Per Zach Berman of The Athletic, Jackson was not placed in the league's concussion protocol, and with a full practice Tuesday, the veteran cornerback is on track to play Friday against the Bears. Jackson has accumulated 33 tackles (24 solo) and six pass defenses across nine regular-season games.
Nov 23, 2025
Concussion evaluation
Jackson is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left during the third quarter and is now being evaluated by the league's independent neurologists for a potential concussion. Cooper DeJean has been moved to outside cornerback in Jackson's absence and Michael Carter has taken over the nickel position, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
Nov 8, 2025
Cleared for Week 10
Jackson (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against Green Bay.
ANALYSIS
Jackson missed Friday's practice while tending to a personal matter but practiced without restriction Saturday, and his lack of an injury designation for Week 10 indicates that he has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol. Jackson's return from a one-game absence means less defensive snaps will be available for Kelee Ringo and recent acquisition Jaire Alexander.
Nov 7, 2025
Doesn't practice Friday
Jackson (concussion) did not participate at practice Friday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson logged a limited practice Thursday, but he took a step back Friday with a personal matter and the concussion. He'll probably have to practice in some capacity again Saturday to have a chance to play Monday at Green Bay.
Nov 6, 2025
Back at practice with limited session
Jackson (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered a concussion in Week 7 versus Minnesota and wasn't able to play in Week 8 against the Giants. The Eagles' Week 9 bye appears to have give Jackson enough time to show improvement, though it's unclear if he's cleared concussion protocol to this point. If not, he'll need to do so in order to be eligible to play Monday against Green Bay.
Oct 24, 2025
Out with concussion
Jackson (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Jackson will not face his former team after he was concussed in last Sunday's win over the Vikings. Kelee Ringo and Parry Nickerson figure to see increased reps at cornerback with Jackson sidelined.
Oct 22, 2025
Not practicing Wednesday
Jackson (concussion) did not participate at practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left Sunday's game at Minnesota early after sustaining a concussion, and now he's in danger of having to miss Week 8 action as well. He'll likely need to return to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have any chance to play Sunday versus the Giants.
Oct 19, 2025
Done for day
Jackson (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Jackson and Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson collided in the third quarter, ultimately resulting in a concussion for Jackson. In his absence, Kelee Ringo will stand to see an increase in workload at cornerback versus Minnesota.
Oct 3, 2025
Cleared to play Week 5
Jackson (groin) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Jackson will return from a one-game absence due to a groin injury that he suffered against the Rams in Week 3, which means Kelee Ringo will revert to a rotational role at outside corner for Sunday's matchup. Jackson has registered 13 tackles (nine solo) and two pass defenses through three regular-season games.
Oct 2, 2025
Upgrades to full practice Thursday
Jackson (groin) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was unable to play in the Eagles' Week 4 win over the Buccaneers due to a groin injury that he sustained against the Rams in Week 3. He opened the week as a limited practice participant Wednesday, but his ability to practice without restrictions Thursday indicates that he should make his return against the Broncos on Sunday. Jackson's return would lead to a drop in defensive snaps for 2023 fourth-rounder Kelee Ringo.
Oct 1, 2025
Limited on Wednesday
Jackson (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Jackson missed last Sunday's win over the Bucs, but a limited session to start the week would seem to put the veteran cornerback on track to return for Week 5 against the Broncos. Jackson has played in three games this season and has logged 13 tackles (nine solo) and two pass breakups on 66 percent of the defensive snaps.
Sep 28, 2025
Sitting out Sunday
Jackson (groin) is listed as inactive Sunday at Tampa Bay.
ANALYSIS
Jackson made an early exit from last Sunday's win against the Rams due to a groin injury, which eventually left him doubtful for Week 4 action after he managed just two limited practices. Now that Jackson officially is out for this Sunday's game, Kelee Ringo is the best bet among cornerbacks on the Eagles' active roster to get the spot start on the outside.
Sep 26, 2025
Doubtful to play Sunday
Jackson (groin) is doubtful to play in Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was limited at practice on Thursday and Friday, but he now appears to be set to miss Week 4 while nursing a groin injury. In his absence, Parry Nickerson and Kelee Ringo stand to see an increase in workload at cornerback against Tampa Bay.
Sep 25, 2025
Limited in Thursday's practice
Jackson (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered a groin injury during the Eagles' Week 3 win over the Rams, which limited him to just 38 defensive snaps. He's trending in the right direction after missing Wednesday's practice, and Friday's injury report will shed some light on his status heading into Sunday's game against Tampa Bay. With Jakorian Bennett (undisclosed) on injured reserve, Kelee Ringo and Parry Nickerson would be in line to see more snaps at outside corner if Jackson is not cleared to play.
Sep 24, 2025
Begins Week 4 with DNP
Jackson (groin) didn't practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson had to make an early exit due to a groin injury in Sunday's win over the Rams and wasn't able to go back into the contest. He'll likely need to return to practice in some capacity over the next two days in order to have a chance of playing Sunday versus Tampa Bay. If Jackson is forced to miss that game, Kelee Ringo could be asked to start at cornerback.
Sep 21, 2025
Exits with groin injury
Jackson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Rams due to a groin injury.
ANALYSIS
Jackson went to the blue medical tent to have his groin injury evaluated to determine whether he can return. Jakorian Bennett has come into the game at corner and will see an uptick in playing time for as long as Jackson is out of the game.
Sep 5, 2025
Logs seven tackles in Philly debut
Jackson registered seven tackles (five solo) and one pass defense during the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson beat out Kelee Ringo for the second starting outside corner job opposite Quinyon Mitchell in training camp. Jackson finished Thursday's game with the second most tackles on the Eagles behind Zack Baun (nine), though part of the former's tackle count was due to Dak Prescott and the Cowboys' offense targeting Jackson in the passing game, especially when he was lined up across CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. Jackson will be in for another tough test in the Eagles' Week 2 contest against the Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 14 in a Super Bowl LIX rematch.
Aug 4, 2025
Competing with Ringo
Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said Monday that the position battle between Jackson and Kelee Ringo for a starting cornerback role "is close," Brandon Lee Gowton of Bleeding Green Nation reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has a massive edge in experience with 82 regular-season NFL starts compared to Ringo's five, but the 29-year-old Jackson's best football is likely behind him while Ringo is heading into his third NFL season at age 23. They have been rotating at the outside cornerback spot opposite Quinyon Mitchell, while Cooper DeJean works in the slot. The competition between Jackson and Ringo will likely be sorted out in the preseason, which begins for Philadelphia on Thursday against the Bengals.
Mar 13, 2025
Heading to Philadelphia
The Eagles signed Jackson to a contract Thursday, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson spent the last four seasons with the Giants after playing with the Titans for the first four years of his NFL career. He played in 14 regular-season games (including five starts) in 2024 and finished with 28 tackles (18 solo), five pass defenses, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. Jackson could compete with Kelee Ringo for the second starting outside corner job opposite Quinyon Mitchell if the Eagles opt to use Cooper DeJean in the slot corner role.
Jan 9, 2025
Reverts to rotational role in 2024
Jackson played in 14 games (five starts) during the regular season, tallying 28 tackles (18 solo), five defensed passes and one forced fumble.
ANALYSIS
After spending the first three years of his Giants tenure as a starter, Jackson didn't get his first start of 2024 until Week 12. Overall, his 28 stops marked his lowest total in a season with the exception of 2020, when he was limited to just three games due to injury. Jackson signed a one-year contract with New York last August, and with the Giants opting to go mostly with younger cornerbacks last season, it seems likely that the veteran will depart for another organization in free agency.
Nov 1, 2024
All set for Week 9 return
Jackson (neck) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's contest against the Commanders, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson is all geared up to return to the field in Week 9 after missing the last two games with a neck issue. The 29-year-old will be back in his role as a depth option behind Nick McCloud and Deonte Banks at cornerback versus Washington.
Oct 26, 2024
Ruled out for Week 8
The Giants announced Saturday that Jackson (neck) is ruled out for Monday's game against the Steelers, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson will miss a second consecutive game due to his lingering neck injury. The depth cornerback's next chance to take the field will come Week 9 at home versus Washington on Nov. 3.
Oct 18, 2024
Won't play in Week 7
Jackson (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson logged consecutive DNPs to end the Giants' week of practice after popping up on the team's injury report Thursday with a neck issue, so it's no surprise he won't suit up in Week 7. Expect Cor'Dale Flott to see increased work as the Giants' top rotational cornerback in Jackson's stead.
Oct 6, 2024
Suiting up
Jackson (calf) is active Sunday against the Seahawks, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson missed last week's loss to the Cowboys, but he was able to get back on the practice field this week, paving the way for him to suit up in Week 5. His ability to get back on the field should be a boost to the Giants' secondary.
Oct 4, 2024
Questionable for Week 5
Jackson (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against Seattle, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson missed last week's loss to the Cowboys and didn't participate in practice Wednesday before being upgraded to limited Thursday. Deonte Banks, Cor'Dale Flott and Nick McCloud handled cornerback duties in Week 4 and would do so again if Jackson and Dru Phillips (calf) are unable to play through questionable tags.
Oct 3, 2024
Raises activity level
Jackson (calf) was a limited participant during practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson missed the team's Week 4 loss to the Cowboys and sat out practice Wednesday. His return in any capacity Thursday may have him on the path to returning Sunday against Seattle. His practice level Friday could bring some further clarity on his chances to do so.
Oct 2, 2024
Sitting out Wednesday's practice
Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that Jackson (calf) will not practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson wasn't able to suit up Week 4 against the Giants on Thursday Night Football due to a calf issue, and even after getting a few days of extra rest he still isn't ready to practice. The veteran cornerback only has two more days to get back on the practice field prior to Sunday's game against the Seahawks. Cor'Dale Flott stands to continue playing an every-down role as long as Jackson remains sidelined.
Sep 25, 2024
Won't play Thursday night
Jackson (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup with the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was held out of practice Wednesday after being estimated as a DNP on Monday, so it's no surprise that he won't be suiting up for Thursday night's divisional matchup with the Cowboys. Expect Cor'Dale Flott to see increased snaps in the Giants' secondary in Jackson's stead.
Sep 23, 2024
DNP on Monday's estimation
Jackson (calf) was listed as a non-participant in Monday's practice estimation, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson sustained a calf injury during the Giants' Week 3 win over the Browns, and following Monday's practice estimation, it appears he could be at risk of missing time. The 2017 first-round pick will likely need to upgrade to a limited session either Tuesday or Wednesday in order to suit up Thursday night.
Sep 22, 2024
Leaves game with calf injury
Jackson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns due to a calf injury, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was in line for additional reps after Andru Phillips (calf) left the game in the first quarter of Sunday's game. With Jackson also sidelined, Art Green will be the next man up at corner.
Aug 30, 2024
Back in Big Apple
The Giants signed Jackson to a contract Friday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, it's reported to be a one-year deal. Jackson spent the previous three campaigns with the Giants, compiling 176 tackles, 23 pass defenses (two interceptions), two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and a defensive TD in 37 regular-season games. Because fellow cornerback Cor'Dale Flott is considered week-to-week due to a quadriceps injury, there's a chance Jackson may have a heavy workload and may even start Week 1 against the Vikings on Sunday, Sept. 8.
Jan 12, 2024
Struggles in seventh NFL season
Jackson registered 63 tackles (49 solo) and eight pass defenses, including an interception that he returned for a touchdown, over 14 games during the regular season.
ANALYSIS
Though Jackson's tackle total was his highest since 2018, the veteran cornerback finished in the bottom third of the league at his position with a 43.9 PFF coverage grade. He did manage to score his first career touchdown on a pick-six in Week 16 against the Eagles, but that personal highlight hardly makes up for his struggles in coverage. Jackson has struggled to stay healthy throughout his career -- his 14 contests this season actually marked his highest total since 2018 -- and New York has a pair of promising young cornerbacks in Deonte Banks and Cor'Dale Flott. With that in mind, it wouldn't be surprising to see Jackson, whose contract includes a 2024 void year, to be with another organization next season.
Jan 2, 2024
Decent showing in loss
Jackson recorded seven tackles (five solo) and a forced fumble in Sunday's 26-25 loss versus the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Jackson's tackle total was his second highest of the season, but his performance in Week 17 was marred by an 80-yard catch and run he ceded to Puka Nacua in the middle of the third quarter. The Giants will play host to A.J. Brown and the Eagles in Week 18.
Dec 28, 2023
Practices in full
Jackson (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old cornerback was limited Wednesday with an ankle injury that he likely picked up Christmas Day, but it seems as if he's already been able to move past the issue. Jackson has served as the Giants' top cornerback this year, and in his 12 appearances, he's tallied 49 total tackles, seven pass deflections and one pick-six.
Dec 27, 2023
Nursing ankle injury
Jackson (ankle) was a limited participant at the Giants' walkthrough practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson led the Giants' corners in snaps during Monday's loss at Philadelphia, and it's not clear when he picked up the ankle issue. Either way, he'll likely need to upgrade to full participation Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.
Dec 26, 2023
Notches pick-six in Week 16 loss
Jackson registered four tackles (all solo) and returned an interception for a touchdown in Monday's loss to Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
With the Eagles up 10 points and in field-goal range late in the third quarter, Jackson temporarily shifted the momentum with an interception of Jalen Hurts that he took 76 yards for a score. It was the first touchdown and just the fourth interception of Jackson's seven-year career, though it wasn't enough for New York to pull of a victory. The veteran cornerback has missed three games due to injury this season, but if he can remain healthy for the Giants' final two contests, he'll finish with his most games played since 2018.
Nov 24, 2023
Will play Sunday
Jackson (concussion) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, but logged full sessions Thursday and Friday and is set to return Sunday. He missed the last two games after sustaining a concussion in Week 9 against the Raiders. Jackson will go back to his starting role at cornerback alongside Deonte Banks.
Nov 23, 2023
Ramps up activity
Jackson (concussion) was a full participant during practice Thursday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
It's not clear if Jackson has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocols, but his ability to log a full practice is a step in the right direction. His status for Friday's practice session should shed better light on his potential availability for Sunday against the Patriots.
Nov 17, 2023
Ruled out for Week 11
Jackson (concussion) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson will miss a second straight game due to a concussion sustained Week 9 against the Raiders. Until Jackson is able to retake the field, Tre Hawkins, Cor'Dale Flott (shoulder) and Nick McCloud will all be candidates to see increased work at cornerback across from Deonte Banks (ankle), who is also dealing with an injury of his own.
Nov 15, 2023
Misses practice
Jackson (concussion) did not practice Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered the concussion in Week 9 against the Raiders and has been unable to get back on the field, as he continues to work his way through the league's five-step protocols. He still has a chance to suit up Sunday against the Commanders, but he'll likely need to log a full practice with no setbacks before then to gain clearance to play.
Nov 10, 2023
Ruled out for Week 10
Jackson (concussion/neck) is ruled out for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has not yet been declared clear of the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, and he's also spent multiple weeks dealing with a neck issue. His next opportunity to suit up will come Week 11 at Washington, another divisional matchup.
Nov 8, 2023
Unable to practice
Jackson did not participate in practice Wednesday due to a neck injury and concussion, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has been dealing with a neck injury for multiple weeks, but he also suffered a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Raiders, which now has him sidelined. The USC product will need to make it through the league's five-step concussion protocols to be able to play Week 10 against the Cowboys.
Nov 5, 2023
Won't return Sunday
Jackson has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Raiders due to a concussion, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was dealing with a neck injury in recent weeks, but he'll be unavailable to close out Sunday's game after being diagnosed with a concussion. Nick McCloud took over at cornerback in Jackson's stead and should continue to see increased playing time down the stretch. It's not yet clear whether Jackson will be available for next Sunday's game against Dallas.
Oct 29, 2023
Active for Week 8
Jackson (neck) is officially active for Sunday's contest against the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson sat out Week 7 against Washington due to a neck injury, and he was held to a trio of limited practice sessions during Week 8 prep. However, he's recovered enough to return to action in Sunday's rivalry game versus the Jets. Jackson is thus slated to return to a starting role in the Giants' secondary.
Oct 27, 2023
Questionable for Sunday vs. Jets
Jackson (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Jets, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson is in jeopardy of missing his second straight game as he tends to a neck injury he sustained in Week 6 at Buffalo. If he sits out, rookie first-rounder Deonte Banks would project as the Giants' top cover corner for Week 8.
Oct 22, 2023
Officially out
The Giants have officially ruled Jackson (neck) as out for Sunday's matchup with the Commanders, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was a limited participant at practice throughout the week, but his neck was not feeling good enough to ultimately give it a go. In his absence, Tre Hawkins and Cor'Dale Flott are candidates to fill in at corner opposite Deonte Banks.
Oct 22, 2023
Likely out Sunday
Jackson (neck) is listed as questionable but is expected to be inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The seventh-year cornerback was a limited participant in practice throughout the week. Jackson has started in all six of the Giants' games this season, recording 23 tackles and two pass breakups. His expected absence could pave the way for either Tre Hawkins or Darnay Holmes to start on the outside opposite Deonte Banks.
Oct 20, 2023
Questionable to play vs. Commanders
Jackson (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus Washington, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson is in jeopardy of missing his first game this season due to a neck injury he sustained in Week 6 at Buffalo. If he's sidelined, Darnay Holmes could be in line to see increased playing time.
Oct 15, 2023
Hurts neck on SNF
Jackson (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Buffalo, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson's neck came in contact with the hip of a Buffalo player, leading to the injury. Darnay Holmes or Cor'Dale Flott will likely serve as the slot corner in Jackson's absence.
Aug 3, 2023
Getting slot work
Jackson has spent time during training camp working out of the slot, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has lined up in the slot, as the Giants get a look at rookie Tre Hawkins on the outside. Although it's unlikely Jackson will play there regularly once the season begins, Duggan speculates that with so many teams playing their top receiver in the slot, it makes sense to give the veteran some work there.
Feb 3, 2023
Beset by injury again this season
Jackson played in 10 games during the 2022 regular season, tallying 51 tackles (40 solo), seven pass defenses, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. He added 14 tackles (11 solo) across New York's two playoff contests.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was a key component of New York's secondary in the games in which he played, taking part in over 90 percent of the team's defensive snaps in nine of his 12 contests between the regular season and playoffs. However, a sprained MCL suffered in Week 11 against Detroit cost him seven games, and he has now missed 29 regular-season contests over the past four campaigns. Jackson is signed through 2024 and should remain a starter in the Giants' secondary next season.
Jan 18, 2023
Full participant Wednesday
Jackson (back) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was a limited participant Tuesday due to a back injury, but it appears the issue is minor as he logged a full session Wednesday. The 2017 first-round pick played 54 defensive snaps and recorded seven tackles (six solo) during the Giants' wild-card win over Minnesota. Jackson figures to see a similar role against the Eagles and will play a major role in attempting to slow down A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
Jan 13, 2023
Not listed on injury report
Jackson doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Vikings, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Leonard, the Giants don't have any players listed as out, doubtful or questionable, so they should be at full strength for their first playoff matchup since 2016. Jackson hasn't played since Week 11 due to a sprained MCL, so it's unclear how effective he'll be Sunday. Nonetheless, the presence of their top cornerback should be a major boost to the Giants' secondary for a matchup against Justin Jefferson and the Vikings' offense.
Jan 11, 2023
Availability in question Sunday
Jackson (knee) logged a limited practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson said he was not sure he'd be able to play, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. The 27-year-old hasn't played since 11 against the Lions when he suffered a sprained MCL. However, he has been practicing in a limited fashion since the team was prepping for Week 17. If he can return for the wild-card round against the Vikings on Sunday, it'd certainly be a boon for the team's secondary.
Jan 8, 2023
Not playing Sunday
Jackson (knee) is inactive Sunday against the Eagles, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson's inability to suit up doesn't come as a surprise, considering he was doubtful coming into Sunday. Also, with the team locked into the No. 6 seed of the NFC playoffs, there is little reason for them to get him back onto the field for their regular-season finale. He'll work to be ready to play next weekend in the wild-card round.
Jan 6, 2023
Unlikely to play in Week 18
Jackson (knee) is doubtful to play in Week 18 against the Eagles, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With the Giants already locked into the sixth seed in the NFC playoffs and set for a wild card contest next weekend, the team seems to be taking a cautious approach with Jackson, holding him out for the regular season finale with his knee injury. The cornerback is likely to return to the field for their postseason run and in the meantime, Fabian Moreau and Darnay Holmes will be amongst the beneficiaries of additional playing time in New York's secondary Sunday in Philadelphia.
Jan 1, 2023
Not suiting up Sunday
Jackson (knee) is inactive for Sunday's contest versus the Colts, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson will miss his sixth straight game after spraining the MCL in his knee during Week 13 against Detroit. He was able to log three limited practice sessions this week, however, so he may be good to go for New York's season finale next Sunday. Fabian Moreau, Darnay Holmes, Nick McCloud and Cor'Dale Flott have been rotating in to fill Jackson's shoes while he has been out.
Dec 30, 2022
Doubtful Sunday
Jackson (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Colts, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Brian Daboll said Friday that Jackson would be a game-time decision for Sunday's Week 17 matchup, but it appears unlikely that the cornerback will be able to return to the field against Indianapolis. If he's forced to miss a sixth consecutive game, Fabian Moreau, Darnay Holmes, Nick McCloud and Cor'Dale Flott should continue to see increased playing time,
Dec 30, 2022
Weekend availability up in the air
Head coach Brian Daboll said Friday that Jackson (knee) will be a game-time decision to play in Sunday's game against the Colts, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson, who's strung together two limited practices to open Week 17 prep due to a sprained MCL, remains at risk of missing a sixth consecutive matchup come New Year's Day. The 27-year-old will likely see how his injured knee feels during pre-game warmups, but if it's eventually determined that he needs another week of rest, Fabian Moreau, Darnay Holmes, Nick McCloud and Cor'Dale Flott should each continue operating as New York's top cornerback options versus Indianapolis on Sunday.
Dec 28, 2022
Set to practice Wednesday
Head coach Brian Daboll said that Jackson (knee) will be limited in Wednesday's practice, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Although Jackson has missed each of the Giants' last five games due to a sprained MCL, his ability to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday would ultimately give him a decent chance to suit up New Year's Day against the Colts. Though his activity levels are worth monitoring as the week progresses, Fabian Moreau, Darnay Holmes and Cor'Dale Flott would each see expanded roles should Jackson eventually miss another matchup.
Dec 22, 2022
Missing another game
Jackson (knee) is ruled out for Saturday's game against the Vikings, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson's knee injury will cause him to miss a fifth straight game, priming Nick McCloud to once again handle a defensive role. Richie James and Darnay Holmes will also stand to handle punt return duties. Jackson's next chance to play will come Jan. 01 versus the Colts.
Dec 16, 2022
Ruled out
Jackson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Jackson didn't practice throughout Week 15 prep, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out for a fourth consecutive game due to a knee injury. Fellow cornerback Nick McCloud (illness) is listed as questionable, so if he joins Jackson on the sidelines, Cor'Dale Floot, Darnay Holmes and Rodarius Williams would all be candidates for increased snaps opposite Fabian Moreau.
Dec 15, 2022
Not practicing in Week 15
Jackson (knee) was a non-participant in the Giants' practice Thursday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has been sidelined for the past three games since suffering an MCL sprain Week 11 versus Detroit. With a usual recovery timeline of 4-6 weeks, it appears the 27-year-old's return may fall somewhere in the middle of this window, as he has now sat out back-to-back practices to begin Week 15. Unless Jackson can increase his activity Friday, Cor'Dale Flott or Darnay Holmes could in line for additional reps after Nick McCloud (illness) also sat out practice Thursday.

Suffers MCL sprain
Jackson (knee) suffered an MCL sprain in Sunday's 31-18 loss to the Lions and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson went down with a knee injury when returning a punt in the first half of Sunday's contest and it has now been determined to be an MCL sprain. The timetable leaves a little room for the cornerback to return late in the season, but his absence will likely have a large impact on the Giants' secondary for the time being. With the team set to play on Thanksgiving Day versus the Cowboys, Nick McCloud and Cor'Dale Flott could step into more substantial roles.
Nov 20, 2022
X-rays negative
Jackson (knee) underwent X-rays that came back clean following Sunday's game against the Lions, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was shaken up on a punt return in the first half of Sunday's matchup, and the team fears that he's sustained a sprained MCL that will force him to miss 3-to-5 weeks. While it's somewhat encouraging that his X-rays came back clean, the 2017 first-rounder will undergo an MRI that should reveal a better diagnosis of any ligament damage.
Nov 20, 2022
Sustains sprained MCL Sunday
Jackson suffered a sprained MCL during Sunday's game against the Lions, and he'll now miss the next 3-5 weeks as a result, Jordan Schultz of TheScore.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson departed Sunday's contest versus Detroit with what has been revealed as a sprained MCL. He'll now face a 3-5 week absence, meaning Fabian Moreau, Darnay Holmes and Cor'Dale Flott are slated to handle New York's cornerback duties for the time being.
Nov 20, 2022
Won't return Sunday
Jackson (knee) was downgraded to out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson recorded two tackles before exiting with a knee injury against Detroit, and he was ruled out before the end of the first half. The starting cornerback recorded 49 tackles and seven passes defended over his first nine games of the season, and he'll now have a short turnaround before the Giants' game against Dallas on Thanksgiving Day.
Nov 20, 2022
Exits with injury
Jackson (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest versus the Lions, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was previously forced out with a neck/knee designation during the Giants' Week 5 win over Green Bay, though it's unclear if these previous issues are related to his exit Sunday. With the top cornerback sidelined for the time being, expect Darnay Holmes and Cor'Dale Flott to step up into bigger roles opposite Fabian Moreau.
Oct 14, 2022
Good to go for Week 6
Jackson doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's contest against the Ravens, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left the team's Week 5 win over the Packers due to knee and neck injuries, and despite only logging limited practices during Week 6 prep, he'll be good to go for Sunday's contest. Across five appearances this year, the 2017 first-round pick has recorded 26 tackles and one pass defense while operating as a starting cornerback opposite of Fabian Moreau.
Oct 12, 2022
Practices in limited capacity
Jackson (knee/neck) was limited during Wednesday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
It's encouraging to see Jackson at least participate in a limited fashion after he left the Giants' Week 5 win over the Packers due to knee and neck injuries. He'll have two more opportunities to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Week 6.
Oct 9, 2022
Downgraded to out
Jackson (knee/neck) has been downgraded to out in Sunday's matchup against the Packers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
After leaving the field during the second half of Sunday's game due to a knee injury, he won't return to the game and is also marked with a neck injury. Darnay Holmes and Fabian Moreau are next in line to serve as the primary cornerbacks for New York.
Oct 9, 2022
Suffers knee injury
Adoree' Jackson (knee) is questionable to return in Sunday's matchup against the Packers, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left the game in the second half and it remains unknown if he'll return to the field. If Jackson is unable to play, this will be a big loss to the Giants' defense. Darnay Holmes and Fabian Moreau are next in line to serve as the primary cornerbacks for New York.
Sep 28, 2022
Seven tackles in loss
Jackson recorded seven tackles (six solo) during Monday's 23-16 loss to the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Jackson finished second on the team in stops and set a new season high with seven tackles. Across three appearances, the 2017 first-round pick has totaled 16 tackles (12 solo) and one pass defense.
Jan 2, 2022
Will play Sunday
Jackson (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was considered questionable due to the quad issue after being activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, and he'll be back on the field for New York in Week 17. The 26-year-old hasn't seen the field since suffering the injury Week 12 against Philadelphia, and the bout with COVID likely slowed his recovery.
Dec 30, 2021
Limited Thursday
Jackson (quadriceps) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice session, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday but has been limited for each of the first two days of practice ahead of Week 17. If he hopes to avoid the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, he'll likely need to practice in a full capacity Friday.
Dec 29, 2021
Activated from COVID-19 list
The Giants activated Jackson (illness/quadriceps) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson tested positive for COVID-19 last week and was expected to miss at least 10 days since he's unvaccinated, but he'll be cleared to return to practice Wednesday as a result of the NFL's updated rules for unvaccinated players. The 26-year-old dealt with a quadriceps injury prior to testing positive for COVID-19, and it's not yet clear whether the issue will impact his availability for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Dec 16, 2021
Tests positive for COVID-19
Jackson (quadriceps) tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Since Jackson is unvaccinated, he'll need to spend at least 10 days away from the team, meaning that he'll be unavailable for Week 15. Since he had been battling a quadriceps injury and won't be able to rejoin the Giants until Dec. 25, his status for the team's Week 16 matchup against the Eagles also appears to be in jeopardy. Since Aaron Robinson (illness) is also on the reserve/COVID-19 list, James Bradberry and Keion Crossen are in line to serve as the primary cornerbacks Sunday against Dallas.
Dec 10, 2021
Won't play Sunday
Jackson (quadriceps) is out Sunday against the Chargers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered the injury in the Giants' Week 12 win over the Eagles and missed Sunday against the Dolphins. In absence Aaron Robinson will likely draw the start in the secondary.
Dec 3, 2021
Officially out for Week 13
Jackson (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered the injury in the first quarter of the Giants' Week 12 win over the Eagles, but there was optimism heading into Week 13 that he wouldn't miss a game. However, that tone quickly changed after Jackson was unable to practice Wednesday or Thursday. Rookie Aaron Robinson will likely see an expanded role at cornerback during Jackson's absence, but it's unclear what New York will do at punt returner, as the backup -- Kadarius Toney (quadriceps) -- is doubtful for Sunday's contest.
Dec 2, 2021
Absent from practice again
Jackson (quadriceps) missed a second consecutive practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
New York's optimism over Jackson's availability for Sunday's game in Miami doesn't seem justified thus far, as he was unable to practice Wednesday nor Thursday. The narrative could shift quickly if the starting cornerback and punt returner participates in practice Friday, but it looks like the injury Jackson suffered in last week's win over the Eagles could be more significant than the Giants initially thought.
Nov 30, 2021
Could play Week 13
The Giants are optimistic that Jackson (quadriceps) will be able to suit up for Sunday's game in Miami, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was forced out of Week 12's game against the Eagles in the first quarter, but it looks like he's at least avoided a serious injury. The Giants will monitor the starting cornerback's activity in practice this week before making a final decision about his availability.
Nov 28, 2021
Ruled out Sunday
Jackson (quadriceps) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left the game in the first quarter and the injury turned out to be serious enough to prevent him from returning. This is worrisome for the Giants since they also lost Darnay Holmes (chest) to injury, which will likely translate into a bigger role for Aaron Robinson.
Nov 28, 2021
Suffers quad injury
Jackson (quadriceps) is questionable to return Sunday against the Eagles, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson left the game in the first half and it remains to be seen if he'll return to action, but his potential absence would be a huge blow to the Giants' defensive scheme. If he can't play, then Pharoh Cooper (as returner) and Darnay Holmes (at cornerback) would be in line to play bigger roles.
Nov 2, 2021
Leads team in tackles
Jackson registered 12 tackles (eight solo) in Monday's 20-17 loss to the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Jackson racked up the tackles essentially shadowing Tyreek Hill as the Chiefs attempted a whopping 48 pass attempts despite a general inefficiency on offense. The speedy corner has been a consistent source of tackles in IDP leagues and currently sits third overall on the team in tackles behind corner Logan Ryan and Blake Martinez (knee) fill in, Tae Crowder.
Sep 12, 2021
Playing Week 1
Jackson (ankle) is listed as active Sunday versus the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered a minor ankle sprain in an Aug. 25 practice, which limited him in practice during Week 1 prep and led to a questionable designation. With his status now cleared up, Jackson will join James Bradberry as the Giants' starting cornerbacks.
Sep 11, 2021
Expected to play Sunday
Jackson (ankle) is expected to play Sunday against the Broncos, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson sustained a minor ankle sprain during practice in late August, and he was limited in practice ahead of Sunday's season opener. Assuming he suits up Sunday, the 2017 first-rounder is expected to work as a starting cornerback in his first year with the Giants.
Sep 10, 2021
Listed as questionable for Sunday
The Giants listed Jackson (ankle) as questionable for the season opener.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered the ankle injury prior to the initial 53-man roster deadline, but it was reportedly just a minor sprain. He was limited at practice all week and will likely be a game-time decision Sunday.
Aug 26, 2021
Escapes with minor sprain
Jackson (ankle) is nursing a minor sprain and could return to practice next week, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson limping off the practice field Wednesday was initially worrying, but it appears as though the oft-injured cornerback has avoided any sort of long-term issue. Barring any setbacks in his recovery, Jackson could return to full health in time for Sept. 12's regular-season opener against the Broncos.
Aug 25, 2021
Suffers ankle sprain
Jackson sustained an ankle sprain during Wednesday's practice, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson limped off with trainers Wednesday, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News, and he will undergo further tests to determine the severity of his injury. Leonard notes that early results are optimistic, and that Jackson hasn't even yet been ruled out for Thursday's joint practice with the Patriots.
Mar 22, 2021
Joining Giants
The Giants and Jackson agreed to a three-year contract Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was limited the past two seasons by a foot issue (2019) and a knee injury (last year), which capped him to 14 appearances en route to 57 tackles and no interceptions. Assuming he can get back to full health, he likely will work as a starting cornerback opposite James Bradberry considering the $39 million investment made in Jackson.
Mar 16, 2021
Let go By Tennessee
Jackson was released by the Titans on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson reached the 70-tackle mark in each of his first two seasons with the Titans but dropped off to just 45 in his third year before totaling only 12 in three games last season. The 2017 first-round pick will likely find a home as a reclamation project with a new team in free agency.
Dec 20, 2020
Confirmed for season debut
Jackson (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has finally shaken off the knee injury that has held him out for the entire season thus far. The fourth-year cornerback practiced in a limited fashion all week, and there is a chance he's not ready for a full workload yet. Jackson's return should nevertheless improve the Titans' secondary immediately, as he allowed just 395 yards and one touchdown in coverage over 11 games last year.
Dec 20, 2020
Expected for Week 15
Jackson (knee), who is questionable for Sunday's game against Detroit, is expected to suit up, Austin Stanley of AtoZ Sports Nashville reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has yet to take the field in 2020 due to the knee issue, so this is positive news for the USC product. Last season for the Titans, Jackson racked up 45 tackles (39 solo) and six pass break ups through 11 games. The official word on Jackson's status should come about 90 minutes prior to kickoff when inactives are released.
Dec 18, 2020
Questionable Week 15
Jackson (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has yet to see the field this season but could make his 2020 debut this weekend. If he's cleared to play, it's unknown how much of a defensive role the 25-year-old will have in his first game action of the season.
Dec 11, 2020
Won't play Sunday
Jackson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Jacksonville, John Glennon of BroadwaySportsMedia.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old was able to practice as a limited participant this week, but he won't be making his season debut Sunday. Jackson was activated from injured reserve in early November but continues to work his way back from the knee injury he sustained just before Week 1.
Dec 9, 2020
Back at practice
Jackson (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson is still looking to make his 2020 debut, as he hasn't yet suited up despite having returned from IR back in early November. He'd been a non-participant up to this point, however, so Jackson handling limited reps actually represents a tangible step in the right direction.
Dec 4, 2020
Ruled out once again
Jackson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Browns, John Glennon of BroadwaySportsMedia.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson returned from IR on Nov. 11 but has yet to make his 2020 debut. In fact, he didn't practice at all this week, and it remains a mystery when he'll be ready to play. His next opportunity will be in the Week 14 clash against Jacksonville.
Nov 27, 2020
Out again
Jackson (knee) will remain sidelined for Sunday's matchup with the Colts, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson's absence will mark his third straight game missed since being activated off injured reserve. He will now set his sights on a potential return in Week 13 versus the Browns.
Nov 20, 2020
Won't play Sunday
Jackson (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
ANALYSIS
The Titans activated Jackson from IR on Nov. 11, but he still isn't actually ready to retake the field. The 25-year-old's next chance to retake the field will come Nov. 29 versus the Colts.
Nov 11, 2020
Officially off IR
The Titans activated Jackson from injured reserve Wedensday, but he won't play in Thursday's game against the Colts, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wednesday marked the last day that the team could activate Jackson off IR, so it's a positive sign that he'll at least return this season. Jackson will have plenty of time to rest and recover before attempting to make his return to the lineup for Week 11 against the Ravens.
Nov 10, 2020
Won't play Thursday if activated
Jackson (knee) won't play Thursday against the Colts even if activated from injured reserve Wednesday, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 21-day window to be activated from injured reserve ends Wednesday, so if the 25-year-old isn't activated he'll revert to season-ending injured reserve. Assuming he is activated, Jackson will have Tennessee's bye in Week 11 to help get up to speed before the next game Nov. 22 at Baltimore.
Nov 9, 2020
Likely activated this week
Jackson (knee) is expected to be activated from injured reserve this week, though there's no guarantee he's available for Thursday's game against the Colts, Joe Rexrode of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old was designated to return from injured reserve Oct. 21, so he's reaching the end of his 21-day practice window to be activated before reverting to injured reserve for the rest of the season. Coach Mike Vrabel said Jackson will be evaluated again Wednesday, but barring a setback it's difficult to imagine him not being activated after he was considered a game-time decision for Sunday's win over the Bears.
Nov 7, 2020
Not activated for Week 9
The Titans didn't activate Jackson (knee) from injured reserve Saturday, so he won't suit up Sunday versus the Bears, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has practiced for three weeks now, but the team doctors have decided to keep him sidelined for another game. If Jackson's not activated by Wednesday, he'll be shut down for the season. That's not expected to be in the plans, however, as the 2017 first-round pick was considered a game-time decision for Sunday's contest, indicating that he's near full health. It appears Desmond King, whom the Titans acquired via trade from the Chargers on Tuesday, will have an immediate role in the Titans' defense, and Chris Jackson should continue to handle a decent workload as well.
Nov 6, 2020
Considered game-time decision
Jackson (knee) is a game-time decision for Sunday's game versus the Bears, and he'll need to be activated from IR by Saturday in order to play, Joe Rexrode of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Titans cut cornerback Johnathan Joseph earlier in the week, signaling that Jackson could be back for this Sunday's game. However, his status is still uncertain, although he'll likely play if he's activated by Saturday at 4:00 p.m. ET. If Jackson's ruled out again, however, he'll have until Wednesday to be lifted from IR, or else he'll be shut down for the rest of the season.
Oct 31, 2020
Won't return Week 8
Jackson (knee) wasn't activated from IR for Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has yet to play this season, and while he was designated to return last week, the team still hasn't activated him. He'll need to be lifted from IR before the Week 9 matchup against Chicago or else he'll be shut down for the rest of the season. Malcolm Butler and Johnathan Joseph will continue to start at cornerback while rookie Chris Jackson rotates in.
Oct 21, 2020
Practice window opens
The Titans designated Jackson (knee) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.
ANALYSIS
The move kicks off Jackson's 21-day window to practice without counting against the 53-man roster. During that time, the Titans can evaluate him to be officially activated at any point. If he excels at practice, it's possible that Jackson could retake the field in time to face Pittsburgh on Sunday.
Oct 10, 2020
Will remain on IR
Jackson (knee) won't be activated from IR ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Bills, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson hasn't returned to practice yet, so it'll likely be at least another week before he's ready to return to game action. Johnathan Joseph and Malcolm Butler are both expected to start once again while Chris Jackson rotates in on passing downs.
Sep 14, 2020
Shifts to IR
The Titans placed Jackson (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was already ruled out for Week 1, and this news ensures he won't be back until Week 4's matchup against the Steelers at the earliest. This is a major loss for the Titans' secondary. Jackson averaged 53 defensive snaps per game over 11 contests last year, and he recorded 45 tackles and six pass breakups. Johnathan Joseph is expected to start at cornerback in Jackson's place for the time being.
Sep 12, 2020
Ruled out for Week 1
Jackson (knee) was ruled out for Week 1 against the Broncos, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was added to the injury report Friday and was quickly ruled out one day later. It's unclear how he sustained the injury, but Jonathan Joseph and Kristian Fulton will be required to step up in his absence.
Sep 11, 2020
Added to injury report
Jackson (knee) was added to the injury report and was a limited practice participant Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
There were no details on how the injury was sustained, though the fact that Jackson was still able to practice is promising. Despite that, his status for the team's opening contest is now in question. Rookie Christian Fulton could be tested immediately if Jackson is unable to suit up.
Aug 18, 2020
Strong start to camp
Jackson has performed well in coverage against A.J. Brown early in camp, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has matched up against the team's top receiver and played him physically early in camp. He's been credited with several pass breakups, most recently during practice on Tuesday. Jackson will be counted on to step up in Tennessee's secondary this season due to the departure of Logan Ryan.
May 1, 2020
Gets fifth-year picked up
Jacks had his fifth-year option picked up by the Titans on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
On the same day the Titans passed on exercising Corey Davis' fifth-year option, the club exercised Jackson's, keeping him under contract through 2021. Jackson had an injury-plagued 2019, playing in just 11 games, but he has still proven to be a key cog in Tennessee's defensive backfield.
Jan 27, 2020
Battles through injuries in 2019
Jackson recorded 45 tackles and six passes defensed across 11 games for the Titans during the 2019 season.
ANALYSIS
Jackson battled a foot injury late in the season, a contributing factor to his downturn in production. However, not reflected in his statistical profile is the fact that Jackson often covered opposing offenses top wideouts, limiting the likes of Odell Beckham, T.Y. Hilton and D.J. Chark throughout the season. Jackson is entering the final guaranteed season of his rookie contract, though the team has a fifth year option that can be exercised for him to remain with the team in 2021.
Jan 19, 2020
Ready to rock
Jackson (foot) is officially active for Sunday's AFC Championship Game in Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Jackson logged a trio of limited practice sessions this week, and as evidenced by this news, was never in real jeopardy of missing the game. He'll assume a starting role at one of the secondary positions Sunday, tasked with slowing down the lethal passing attack of the Chiefs led by Patrick Mahomes.
Jan 17, 2020
Questionable for Sunday
Jackson (foot) is officially questionable for Sunday's AFC Championship Game in Kansas City, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson put together a trio of limited practice sessions this week, so he appears to have a fair shot at playing through his injury on Sunday, as he did during the divisional-round win over Baltimore. The starting cornerback's presence would provide a notable boost for Tennessee's secondary against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs' aerial attack.
Jan 16, 2020
Limited in practice Thursday
Jackson (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has now logged back-to-back limited practice sessions. He managed to play through his lingering foot injury during the divisional-round win over Baltimore, so barring any setbacks, the starting cornerback looks on track for the AFC Championship Game in Kansas City.
Jan 9, 2020
Sheds injury designation
Jackson (foot) does not carry an injury designation for Saturday's AFC divisional-round matchup against the Ravens, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was a full participant in Thursday's practice after missing the week's first two sessions. He's on track to draw his usual start at cornerback in Baltimore on Saturday.
Dec 4, 2019
Not practicing Wednesday
Jackson has a foot injury and didn't participate at Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Jackson exited last Sunday's win over the Colts with what was described as a knee injury, but it's apparently a foot issue keeping him out. The 24-year-old likely will need to practice in some capacity this week to have a legitimate chance of suiting up for Sunday's game at Oakland.
Dec 1, 2019
Done for day
Jackson (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Colts, John Glennon of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear how Jackson suffered the injury, but the fact that he was immediately ruled out isn't a positive sign for the severity of the injury. Expect the team to comment on his status in the coming days, and in Jackson's stead, look for Kareem Orr and Josh Kalu to see an uptick in snaps for the rest of the game.
Oct 20, 2019
Leaves game Sunday
Jackson left Sunday's game with the Chargers due to a left foot injury and is questionable to return, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.
ANALYSIS
With Jackson out, the Titans' depth in their secondary takes a hit. LeShaun Sims is likely to see more playing time as a result.
