INJURIES

Good to go vs. Baltimore Jackson (hamstring) was a full practice participant Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Impact Jackson injured his hamstring during the Steelers' Week 10 win over the Commanders. He opened as a DNP on Wednesday, but his practice participation increased over the week and he'll be good to go for Sunday's AFC North showdown. Jackson has logged 26 tackles (17 solo) and six pass defenses (including three interceptions) through the first nine games of the regular season.

Expected to play Sunday Jackson underwent an MRI on his hamstring and is now expected to play in Sunday's matchup against the Ravens, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.
Impact Jackson played 42 defensive snaps and recorded two total tackles before exiting the Steelers' Week 10 win with a hamstring injury. However, the first-year Steeler appears to have avoided a serious issue following his MRI results, and he's now expected to suit up in Week 11. Assuming his injury doesn't worsen throughout the week, Jackson will likely start opposite Joey Porter as part of Pittsburgh's top cornerback duo Sunday.

Not listed on injury report Jackson (shoulder) was absent from Thursday's injury report, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Jackson suffered a shoulder injury during the Steelers' Week 7 win over the Jets. It appears to be a minor issue, however, as the 2018 second-round pick was able to practice Thursday without limitations. Barring any setbacks, Jackson should start at corner opposite Joey Porter against the Giants on Monday.

Snags third INT Jackson recorded a solo tackle, two pass breakups and an interception in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Raiders.
Impact This was Jackson's third interception of the season, and he sits just one interception shy of the career best he posted as a rookie in 2018. The 2018 second-round pick has just 18 sacks (12 solo) through six games, so his weekly floor remains low.

Impresses in Steelers debut Jackson recorded two total tackles (one solo) and two passes defended, including one interception, during Sunday's 18-10 win over the Falcons.
Impact Jackson was traded from the Panthers to Steelers earlier this past offseason, and he impressed in Week 1 with his new team. The 28-year-old cornerback tied DeShon Elliott for the team lead in both passes defended and interceptions Sunday, and Jackson's pick put the Steelers in the driver's seat in the fourth quarter. Expect Jackson to continue lining up opposite Joey Porter and wreak havoc on opposing quarterbacks as the season progresses.
