Eddie Jackson Fantasy

Chicago Bears safety Eddie Jackson (foot) was carted off the field in Week 2 and continues to miss practice this week. The superstar safety missed Friday's practice, which puts his status in doubt for the Week 3 matchup versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Honestly, it's a bit surprising the Bears haven't ruled out Jackson for this upcoming contest. His absence would probably mean an increased workload for seventh-rounder Elijah Hicks. The loss of Jackson would be a significant hit to the Bears secondary that has already struggled this season.

Chicago Bears safety Eddie Jackson (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of the game due to a foot injury, per NFL Network's Sara Walsh. The former first-team all-pro went down without contact and grabbed his lower ankle after attempting to help stop a Chris Godwin reception. Jackson is one of the better players on a weak Chicago defense, so this is a big loss for the Bears secondary. Baker Mayfield should feel slightly more comfortable throwing downfield with the absence of the Bears star safety so Mike Evans could see another deep shot or two.

Chicago Bears safety Eddie Jackson (foot) recently returned to practice in OTAs. The two-time Pro Bowl safety suffered a Lisfranc injury near the end of November. Jackson appears to be in good shape and has been limited individual drills early in the week. It sounds like Jackson is heading in the right direction and he should be ready to go by training camp. Last season, Jackson recorded 80 tackles, six passes defended, and four interceptions in 12 games with the Bears. The stud safety is a big part of the Bears secondary, so hopefully he'll be healthy heading into the season.
