NFL News: Philadelphia Eagles Lose Safety Marlin Jackson For Season

News

Jackson is keeping up his tradition of knee injuries. It’s a shame because he’s a good player when healthy.

Jackson ruptured his achilles tendon in practice on Tuesday and will miss the entire upcoming season. This will be the third straight year Jackson has missed time with a leg injury. In 2008 Jackson tore his right ACL, then in 2009 he tore his left ACL, now he ruptured his right achilles.

Jackson signed as a free agent with the Eagles after spending his entire career with the Indianapolis Colts.
