Signs with Rams
Jackson signed a one-year contract with the Rams on Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Los Angeles native will play for his hometown team, providing a proven deep threat for new Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. Jackson was released by the Eagles last month after appearing in only eight games for Philadelphia over the past two seasons, but he's back to full health and will be eager to prove he still has something left in the tank at age 34.

Release made official
The Eagles released Jackson (ankle) on Friday.
Analysis: Jackson, who only played eight games over two seasons with the Eagles while battling multiple injuries, never appeared to have a real chance at sticking around for 2021. Cutting the 34-year-old will save Philadelphia roughly $4.8 million against the cap, per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia, and the move will allow Jackson to immediately search for another organization where he can continue his career. Jackson still flashed big-play ability when healthy last season -- he…read more

Release forthcoming?
The Eagles are expected to release Jackson (ankle), John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Philadelphia can save roughly $4.8 million against the salary cap by cutting Jackson, per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia. Such a move would make real sense for a team currently more than $40 million over the cap for next season and staring down a quarterback transition, with Carson Wentz recently having been traded to Indianapolis. Compounding matters is the fact that Jackson, who turned 34 in December, has only managed to suit up for eight games over the last two seasons…read more

Not playing in finale
Jackson (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus Washington.
Analysis: In his return from injured reserve in last week's loss to Dallas, Jackson turned his only target into an 81-yard touchdown. Though he wasn't known to have suffered a setback with his ankle in that contest, he was unable to practice for three straight days before being ruled out Week 17. With little on the line for Philadelphia in the season finale, Jackson may just getting some extra maintenance coming off an injury-plagued campaign. He made just five appearances in 2020, finishing with 14…read more

Fails to practice Thursday
Jackson (ankle) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Jackson was sidelined for a second straight practice, but it's unclear if his back-to-back absences are indicative of a setback with his ankle, or if the Eagles are merely just giving some extra maintenance to a veteran player who returned from a six-game absence over the weekend. The speedy wideout played only 20 offensive snaps in the Eagles' loss to the Cowboys, but he provided his team's biggest play of the day, reeling in a pass from Jalen Hurts for an 81-yard touchdown. If Jackson gains…read more

Misses Wednesday's practice
Jackson (ankle) was a non-participant at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Prior to his return to action Sunday, when he hauled in his sole target for an 81-yard touchdown in a loss to Dallas, Jackson missed the previous six games due to a non-displaced fracture in his right ankle. As a result, the ankle issue next to his name on Wednesday's injury report likely is one and the same. The Eagles may just be giving Jackson the day off, but his status as the week goes on bears watching to get a sense of the breakdown of the team's receiving corps Week 17 against…read more

Burns Dallas deep in return
Jackson caught his only target for an 81-yard touchdown in Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The veteran speedster has made a habit of punishing Dallas on deep routes throughout his career, and after missing seven straight games, Jackson seemed poised to make up for lost time when he hauled in a 50-yard heave from Jalen Hurts late in the first quarter and then strutted the rest of the way into the end zone. That proved to be the only target he saw, however, as the Cowboys' secondary found a way to shut him down. The TD was Jackson's first of the season, and he'll look for another in…read more

Active Week 16, as expected
Jackson (ankle), who was activated from injured reserve Saturday, is in uniform as expected for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Dave Zangano of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: The speedy veteran last saw game action Week 7, so whether he'll be on a snap limit remains to be seen. However, Jackson will certainly serve as a second deep threat alongside Jalen Reagor for rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts versus the Cowboys' suspect defense.

Set to return
Jackson (ankle) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and will play Sunday against the Cowboys, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jackson has played in just four games this season thanks to separate ankle injuries, but his most recent return comes on the heels of a non-displaced fracture in a Week 7 win over the Giants. Sunday will feature a completely new quarterback Jackson is accustomed to, as Jalen Hurts has reinvigorated a struggling Eagles offense. It'll be harder for Jackson to make an immediate difference, however, with a myriad of capable options available in the quagmire that is the Eagles pass catchers.

'Getting close' to return
Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said Thursday that Jackson (ankle) is "getting close" to returning from injured reserve, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports. "He was able to get some snaps in [Wednesday] with the offense, and we'll integrate him more [Thursday] and just see where he's at," Pederson said of Jackson, who was designated to return from IR a day earlier.
Analysis: While Pederson was pleased with what he saw from Jackson in terms of his movement and route running at Wednesday's practice, the coach didn't commit to the wideout being activated and cleared to play Sunday at Dallas. The Eagles will presumably wait and see if Jackson is able to ramp up his activity Thursday or Friday before a formal decision on his status is made. Philadelphia will have 21 days to evaluate Jackson, so he could still be activated ahead of Week 17 or for a potential wild-card…read more

Returning to practice
The Eagles designated Jackson (ankle) for return from IR on Monday.
Analysis: The transaction kicks off a 21-day window wherein Jackson can be evaluated at practice without counting against the roster limit. The Eagles can choose to activate him at any point in that span. The veteran wideout hasn't played since Week 7 due to an ankle fracture, but it appears as though he's gearing up for a potential return.

Shift to IR official
The Eagles placed Jackson (ankle) on injured reserve Monday.
Analysis: Jackson is expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks due to a non-displaced fracture in his right ankle, so his placement on IR was only a matter of time. It appears that the veteran wideout has a shot to make a late-season return, an eventuality which could become more realistic if the Eagles are in contention for a playoff spot come December. On a more positive note for Philadelphia, Jackson's placement on IR opens up a roster spot for the tentative return of Jalen Reagor (thumb).

Fractures ankle, out months
Jackson will miss the next 6-to-8 weeks after suffering a non-displaced fracture in his ankle during Thursday's win over the Giants, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jackson was originally believed to have suffered a high ankle sprain, but ensuing tests have now determined the serious nature of the injury. The return timetable would suggest the veteran receiver could return near the end of the regular season, but it's possible the Eagles might simply take their time with Jackson's recovery process in the event they bow out of contention for a playoff spot. It's worth noting Jackson, who has played in just 18 games over the past three seasons, does not plan…read more

Likely IR bound with ankle sprain
Jackson is expected to be placed on injured reserve in the near future after an MRI on Friday confirmed he suffered a high-ankle sprain in Thursday's 22-21 win over the Giants, John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: A previous report suggested Jackson might need surgery for his right ankle, but it isn't clear if that's still an option or not. He's expected to miss at least three games, and possibly more, after injuring his ankle in his return to the lineup after missing the Eagles' previous three games with a hamstring strain. John Hightower could now rejoin the starting lineup, especially if Alshon Jeffery (calf/foot) misses more time.

High-ankle sprain feared
Jackson is believed to have suffered a high-ankle sprain in Thursday's win over the Giants, but he'll undergo an MRI on Friday before a determination is made on surgery, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The 33-year-old returned from a three-game absence and caught three passes for 34 yards and rushed once for 12 yards Thursday before suffering the injury while fielding a punt. A high-ankle sprain would likely sideline Jackson for at least the next few weeks, but he's apparently not out of the woods for potentially having an even more serious injury.

Hurt late Thursday
Jackson exited Thursday's contest against the Giants due to an apparent leg injury late in the fourth quarter, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jackson endured a late hit while fielding a punt with just over two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. In addition to taking impact to the head, the veteran wideout's right leg bent awkwardly. He wasn't able to walk to the medical tent under his own power. Before exiting Thursday's game, Jackson had three catches for 34 yards and one carry for 12 yards.

Will return Thursday
Jackson (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Thursday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Jackson wrapped up Week 7 prep Wednesday with a full practice for the first time since Week 3, when he initially strained his hamstring. Elsewhere in the Eagles' receiving corps, Alshon Jeffery (foot/calf) is sitting out again, leaving Jackson, Travis Fulgham, Greg Ward, John Hightower, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and Quez Watkins as the available healthy wide receivers Thursday.

Trending toward playing Week 7
Coach Doug Pederson said he anticipates Jackson (hamstring) will be able to play Thursday against the Giants, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Meanwhile, fellow wideout Alshon Jeffery (foot) is likely to miss the contest. There's a decent chance that the Eagles will officially list Jackson as questionable, but if he's able to suit up Thursday, he may not be in store for a full snap load.

Limited Tuesday
Jackson (hamstring) was listed as limited on Tuesday's estimated injury report.
Analysis: The Eagles expect to welcome back Jackson on Thursday against the Giants following a three-game absence to tend to a strained hamstring. Position-mate Alshon Jeffery (foot) continues to log limited sessions, with no indication when he may make his season debut. Wednesday's injury report will provide a sense of the duo's ability to play Week 7, but Travis Fulgham, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and John Hightower are all healthy in the event one or both of Jackson and Jeffery remain sidelined.

Analysis: The Eagles hope to have Jackson, who has missed the last three weeks due to a lingering hamstring strain, back on the field for Thursday's divisional matchup against the Giants. Beginning the week with at least a limited listing, even if Monday's practice report is only an estimate, puts Jackson on the right track, though he could need to officially go through a full practice session before being cleared to retake the field.

Analysis: Although Philadelphia is facing a quick turnaround Week 7 with a Thursday night road game at the Giants, the team apparently is optimistic about Jackson's chances of making his first appearance since Sept. 27.

Analysis: Coach Doug Pederson said Jackson looked good at Thursday's practice and could make it back for the Week 6 contest, but it turns out the veteran receiver will be out for at least one more game. Alshon Jeffery (foot) also was ruled out, leaving Travis Fulgham, John Hightower and Greg Ward as the clear leading trio at wide receiver this Sunday.

Coach Doug Pederson said Jackson (hamstring) "had a really good" practice Thursday and could play Sunday against the Ravens, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Analysis: The 33-year-old was a limited participant in the first two practices of the week, but he apparently showed enough Thursday for Pederson to express some public optimism about his outlook for Sunday. Jackson could avoid an injury designation this weekend if he's able to put in a full practice Friday. Otherwise, he may receive the questionable tag.

Jackson (hamstring) was limited in practice Thursday.
Analysis: Jackson looked OK running routes at Thursday's session, per EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer, yet he didn't do enough to be considered a full participant.

Analysis: Jackson also managed to string together a trio of limited practices last before being ruled out ahead of the Eagles' loss to the Steelers, so his Week 6 availability still remains up in the air.

Suffers hamstring injury
Jackson left Sunday's contest against the Bengals due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: Late in the first half, Jackson was examined by the team's medical staff, but the specific health concern wasn't known until after halftime. He's questionable to return, and in an Eagles receiving corps without Alshon Jeffery (foot) and rookie Jalen Reagor (thumb), the group has been whittled down to Greg Ward, J.J.

Goes for 64 yards in loss
Jackson brought in six of nine targets for 64 yards in the Eagles' 37-19 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: D-Jax once again received a healthy dose of targets from Carson Wentz but couldn't turn the looks into fantasy-relevant stat lines. Through the first two weeks of the season, Jackson has grabbed eight receptions for 110 scoreless yards. Even as the de facto No. 1 option in the Eagles' passing attack, his weekly production is as volatile as its ever been, though he has a chance to finally strike paydirt when Philly takes on Cincinnati's exploitable secondary in Week 3.

Not seen at practice
Jackson isn't participating in the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Analysis: There was no report that Jackson suffered an injury during or after Sunday's 27-17 loss to Washington, in which he remained active deep into the fourth quarter. He caught only two of seven targets for 46 yards, but his NFL-high 210 air yards reveal the type of high-upside usage fantasy managers want to see. Of course, Jackson now looks to be in danger of landing on the injury report, something that's been all too common throughout the second half of his career.

Catches two of seven targets
Jackson caught two of seven targets for 46 yards during Sunday's 27-17 loss to Washington.
Analysis: Jackson got off to a nice start, as he hauled in a 19-yard pass on his team's opening touchdown drive. He tied for second on the team in targets in this one, but he only made one additional grab as the offense went stale after going up 17-0. Jackson continues to see his share of deep targets -- as his average of 23.0 yards per reception Sunday indicates -- but that specialized role also comes with plenty of risk for fantasy purposes. He should be utilized similarly next Sunday against the Rams.

Feeling healthy again
Jackson says he's healthy and feeling rejuvenated ahead of Sunday's game at Washington, John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. "I feel like the surgery put more years on these legs," Jackson said. "It's like putting a new engine in a Ferrari."
Analysis: Jackson didn't have much hype throughout fantasy draft season, but he's been a popular topic of discussion heading into Week 1, partially due to the expectation of teammate Jalen Reagor missing time with a shoulder injury. It turns out Reagor will be active Sunday, but there's still plenty of reason to like the matchup for Jackson, who takes aim at a shaky Washington secondary that has offseason addition Kendall Fuller (calf) listed as doubtful.

Looking good in practice
Jackson (abdomen) appears to be at full health in the early stages of training camp, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Jackson missed most of the 2019 season due to a sports hernia that eventually required surgery, but he doesn't seem to have slowed down after the long layoff, as he was seen running past three-time Pro Bowl cornerback Darius Slay in a drill last week. The 33-year-old can be quite productive when on the field, as evidenced by his eight-catch, 154-yard, two-touchdown performance in Week 1 of last season. However, durability has never been Jackson's forte.

Plays fewest games of career
Jackson (abdomen) caught nine of his 10 targets for 159 yards and two touchdowns across three games in the 2019 season.
Analysis: Jackson's loss to an abdominal strain in Week 2 was devastating to the Eagles' offense as the 32-year-old was expected to help open up the Eagles' passing game. Instead, he missed six games before attempting to come back for Week 9, when he aggravated the injury, this time tearing the affected muscle completely and requiring what would be season-ending surgery. However, the 12-year-vet was said to be nearing a return if the Eagles could have advanced to the divisional round of the NFC…read more

Still eyeing divisional-round return
Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Jackson (abdomen) is "getting close" to a return and could be ready to come off injured reserve when first eligible in the divisional round, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Analysis: Jackson seems to be progressing well from his November surgery, but the Eagles will first have to dispatch the Seahawks in the wild-card round before the wideout's return is seriously entertained. If Philadelphia advances and Jackson gets the green light to play in the divisional round, he would provide a major boost to an Eagles receiver room that currently counts former practice squad member Greg Ward as its top option.

Angling for postseason return
Jackson (abdomen) is expected to be reinstated from injured reserve in the event the Eagles advance to the divisional round of the postseason, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Despite winning a head-to-head matchup with Dallas on Sunday to take a one-game lead in the NFC East standings, the Eagles will still need to defeat the Giants in Week 17 or have the Cowboys lose to the Redskins before securing a playoff spot. If the Eagles can punch their ticket to the postseason and win a home matchup in the wild-card round, their depleted receiving corps could get a much-needed addition in Jackson, who is reportedly progressing well in his recovery from the abdominal surgery…read more

Lands on IR
The Eagles placed Jackson (abdomen) on injured reserve Tuesday.
Analysis: While Jackson is still eligible to rejoin the Eagles in the postseason, the move to IR officially spells an end to his regular season after he underwent core-muscle surgery Tuesday, two days after he tore his abdominal muscle off the bone in Sunday's win over the Bears. Jackson's two-touchdown outing in Week 1 proved to be the highlight of his abbreviated campaign, as he exited early due to the abdominal injury in both of his other two appearances. With Jackson sidelined again, the Eagles will…read more

Surgery deemed successful
Jackson underwent successful surgery Tuesday to address a core-muscle injury, John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Jackson elected to forgo surgery after first suffering a Grade 2 abdominal strain in Week 2, missing the subsequent six games as a result. The wideout returned to action in Sunday's win over the Bears and played only one series before suffering a complete tear of the abdominal muscle, making a procedure necessary this time around. Jackson's recovery time is estimated at around six weeks, making it a real possibility that his 2019 season is over.

Needs surgery, likely done for season
Jackson is scheduled to undergo surgery Tuesday to address his abdominal injury and likely will be sidelined for at least 4-to-6 weeks, John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Jackson played only four snaps before departing Sunday's 22-14 win over the Bears after aggravating the abdominal injury that had sidelined him for the Eagles' prior six contests. The Eagles initially described Jackson's removal as precautionary, but after meeting with core specialist Dr. William Meyers, it was determined the wideout completely tore his abdominal muscle off the bone. Based on the estimated recovery timeline for the surgery, Jackson's season is more than likely over, an outcome…read more

Getting more information on injury
Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Jackson is undergoing second and third opinions for the abdominal injury the receiver aggravated in Sunday's win over the Bears, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Cleared to return from a six-week absence Sunday, Jackson caught his lone target for a five-yard gain and played only four snaps before bowing out of the contest. While Pederson reiterated that the Eagles removed Jackson for precautionary purposes, the coach wouldn't speculate on the 32-year-old's availability moving forward until the team receives the latest test results. Jackson should at least benefit from the Eagles being on bye Week 10 before the team returns to action Nov. 17 versus New…read more

Sits most of game as precaution
Coach Doug Pederson confirmed Jackson (abdomen) didn't return to Sunday's 22-14 win against the Bears as a precautionary measure, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Analysis: After gathering in one of two passes for five yards on the Eagles' first possession, Jackson didn't make another appearance. Instead, he remained on the sideline without a helmet, aside from a visit to the locker at one point. With a bye week on tap, the team will aim to get Jackson healthy for a Nov. 17 matchup against the Patriots.

Questionable to return
Jackson (abdomen) left Sunday's game versus the Bears.
Analysis: Jackson was targeted twice on the Eagles' first possession, hauling in one of them for five yards. Thereafter, he was seen on the sideline without a helmet and even visited the locker room for a spell. According to Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger, the Eagles are keeping Jackson out of the game as a precautionary measure. Fortunately for Jackson, the Eagles have a Week 10 bye, giving him two weeks to rest and rehab before their next contest Sunday, Nov. 17 against the Patriots.

Cleared for Week 9
Jackson (abdomen) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: With Jackson checking out fine after a pregame workout, he'll be cleared to make his long-awaited return following a six-week absence. Coach Doug Pederson hasn't clarified the extent of Jackson's role in his first game coming off the abdominal injury, but it's possible the receiver plays a restricted snap count Sunday. Jackson's return should nonetheless result in a decreased role for Mack Hollins, who played no fewer than 46 percent of the offensive snaps in each of the preceding six games.

Slated to play Sunday
Jackson (abdomen) is expected to play Sunday against the Bears, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Jackson has missed the last six games due to an abdominal issue and is listed as questionable, but it looks as though he'll make his return after working as a limited practice participant this week. The 32-year-old could still end up facing a limited snap count following the extended layoff, but his presence as a deep threat could still be significant against a stout Chicago defense.

Officially questionable for Week 9
Jackson (abdomen) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: Jackson has missed the Eagles' last six games, but he took a notable step forward this week by practicing on a limited basis Wednesday through Friday. While the questionable tag implies that Jackson has a 50-50 shot of suiting up Sunday, coach Doug Pederson noted earlier Friday that he's "optimistic" the receiver will be ready to go this weekend, per Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia. If active this weekend, Jackson could face a restricted snap count in his first game back from the…read more

Optimism about Week 9 availability
Coach Doug Pederson is optimistic Jackson (abdomen) will play Sunday against the Bears, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Analysis: Jackson will still have to make it through the next few days without a setback before being cleared to play, but with the head coach feeling good about Jackson's chances of returning to action, fantasy players can do the same. Jackson's official status for Week 9 will be revealed after Friday's practice, while a final call on his availability may not be made until Sunday.
