Austin Jackson Fantasy

The Miami Dolphins placed offensive tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Monday and signed former No. 1 overall pick Eric Fisher in a corresponding move, according to league sources. This will be Jackson's second stint on the Injured Reserve this year due to an ankle injury, so there's a chance we won't see him again in 2022. The 23-year-old played just one game since he came off IR the first time, and the former first-rounder has played in just two games this year. Fisher started 15 games for the Indianapolis Colts in 2021 and could see significant playing time sooner than later in Miami with Terron Armstead (pectoral) also injured for the Dolphins offensive line.

The Miami Dolphins ruled out right tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) for the Week 13 game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday are listing left tackle Terron Armstead (pectoral, toe) as doubtful to play. The Dolphins are likely to be without both starting offensive tackles for a big game in Week 13 against the tough 49ers pass rush, so this could be a big storyline in Sunday's game. Jackson played in Week 12 for the first time since the season opener, but the 23-year-old former first-rounder suffered a new injury to the same ankle. With both Jackson and Armstead likely to miss this game, the Dolphins will turn to Brandon Shell and Greg Little to bookend their offensive line. It's bad news for the Dolphins offense overall.

The Miami Dolphins activated offensive lineman Austin Jackson (ankle) from Injured Reserve on Tuesday and placed offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg (knee) on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Eichenberg suffered an MCL injury in the Week 8 win over the Detroit Lions and will now miss at least the next four games. Jackson has been out since getting injured in the season opener, and it remains to be seen if he'll be healthy enough to return to the starting right tackle job in a Week 9 matchup versus the Chicago Bears on the road. Greg Little and Brandon Shell have been filling in at right tackle with Jackson on the sidelines.
