ASHBURN, Va. (AP) The Washington Redskins have downgraded wide receiver DeSean Jackson to out against the New York Jets on Sunday because of a left hamstring injury.

The Redskins initially had indicated there was a chance that Jackson might be able to play, but they announced on Saturday he didn't travel with the team to face the Jets.

Jackson hurt his hamstring during Washington's first game this season.
