Concussion confirmed Jackson has a concussion and won't return to Sunday's game at Houston, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact The 28-year-old exited late in the second quarter and won't be retaking the field. Jackson will need to clear the concussion protocol to have a chance of suiting up in next week's season finale. LeShaun Sims should see increased work in the secondary for Cincinnati.

Getting checked for concussion Jackson is being evaluated by trainers for a potential concussion.

Impact Jackson left the field at the 3:01 mark of the second quarter, and it remains to be seen if Cincinnati will have to proceed without one of its top corners for the remainder of a Week 16 matchup against the Texans. The 28-year-old has missed just one game all season. If he proves unable to return to Sunday's contest, LeShaun Sims may have to become more involved for the Bengals secondary.

Won't face Browns Jackson (concussion) is ruled out for Sunday's divisional contest against the Browns, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Jackson will need to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before taking the field, until which time LeShaun Sims or Darius Phillips (illness) will likely draw the start at cornerback. The fifth-year pro normally handles an every-down role in Cincinnati's secondary, making him a difficult player to replace.

Enters concussion protocol Jackson (concussion) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jackson appears to have suffered a concussion during this past Sunday's loss to the Colts, and he'll need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol before he can play in a game. The fifth-year cornerback has played nearly every defensive snap this year and performed quite well in the process, allowing an 81.4 passer rating and just 5.9 yards per target. If he's unable to get healthy in time for Sunday's game, either LeShaun Sims or Darius Phillips (illness) likely will bump into the starting role.
