Browns' Jackson: Clowney could 'hop on' Super Bowl contender
Malik Jackson signed with the Browns because the defensive tackle thinks they can win the Super BowlMARCH 31, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Low tackle numbers in 2020 Jackson recorded 28 tackles (15 solo), 2.5 sacks, two defensed passes and one fumble recovery across 15 games in 2020.
Impact Jackson finished with the lowest tackle total of his career (min. 10 games played), aside from his rookie year in 2012. The 30-year-old did stay mostly healthy, however, only missing a single contest due to a concussion. The veteran also saw his workload steadily drop to around fifty percent of defensive snaps down the stretch of the season, making him an unlikely option for high-end fantasy value in IDP formats come 2021. Still, he could provide a relatively steady floor.

Good to go Week 15 Jackson (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Impact The 30-year-old sustained the concussion during last week's win over the Saints, but he was able to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol. Jackson has played about half the defensive snaps since the Week 9 bye and should have a similar workload Sunday.

Draws questionable tag Jackson (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game in Arizona, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Impact Jackson will need to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before retaking the field, and he still has some hurdles to surpass before getting the green light to suit up Sunday. Javon Hargrave would be the favorite to enter the starting lineup if Jackson can't go.

Concussion confirmed Jackson (concussion) was limited in practice Wednesday.
Impact Jackson's designation on the injury report confirms the suspicion that he suffered a concussion in last week's game against the Saints, which means he will need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol in order to suit up Sunday in Arizona. Javon Hargrave would likely get the nod at defensive tackle if Jackson's unable to play.

May have suffered concussion Jackson was forced out of Sunday's 24-21 win over the Saints and evaluated for a head injury, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.
Impact If Jackson has indeed been placed in the five-step concussion protocol, he won't be eligible to retake the field until garnering full clearance. Javon Hargrave would be a candidate to start at defensive tackle if Jackson is forced to miss time.

Upgraded Thursday Jackson (quadriceps) was a full participant during Thursday's practice.
Impact Jackson was a limited participant Wednesday while managing the quad injury, so he appears on track for a return in Week 10. The veteran has supplied 13 tackles (six solo) and 1.5 sacks this season, so expect him to work back into the defensive line rotation for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Giants.
NOVEMBER 12, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Still dealing with injury Jackson (quadriceps) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Chris McPherson of the team's official site reports.
Impact Jackson continues to work back from the quadriceps injury that he aggravated in Week 8's win over the Cowboys. If the veteran is healthy enough to return, expect him to work back into the defensive line rotation for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Giants.

Re-injures quad Jackson (quadriceps) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Dallas.
Impact Jackson wasn't on the injury report after missing last week's game with a quadriceps injury, but he appears to have aggravated that injury against the Cowboys. Javon Hargrave will likely take Jackson's spot on the interior of Philadelphia's defensive line.

Ready for Sunday's game Jackson (quadriceps) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Cowboys.
Impact Jackson missed last week's divisional win over the Giants, but after logging a full practice Friday, he's been cleared to return to the lineup. The 30-year-old defensive tackle handled 79 percent of the defensive workload in Week 1 but saw his snap share shrink for five straight games before his injury, ending up at 44 percent in Week 6. However, Hassan Ridgeway (bicep) is now out for the year, so Jackson's snap count could start rising again as long as he's fully healthy.

Won't play Thursday Jackson (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Giants.
Impact This news comes as no surprise considering Jackson's expected to miss two weeks due to the quadriceps injury he suffered in last week's loss to Baltimore. Javon Hargrave and Hassan Ridgeway should be the beneficiaries of Jackson's absence from a playing time perspective.
OCTOBER 21, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Could miss two games Jackson is expected to miss two weeks with a quadriceps injury he picked up in Sunday's loss to the Ravens, Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports.
Impact This means Jackson likely will miss Thursday's matchup against the Giants and the Week 8 tilt against the Cowboys, and the Eagles hope he'll return to action following their Week 9 bye. Javon Hargrave is expected to bump into a starting role in place of Jackson, and Hassan Ridgeway should see his snap count rise as well.
