Head coach Mike McDaniels told reporters Tuesday that Jackson will require season-ending knee surgery, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports. Jackson was ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Rams due to a knee injury. He was placed on injured reserve Monday, and after further evaluation, the 2020 first-round pick will undergo surgery and remain on IR for the rest of the 2024 campaign. Kendall Lamm is expected to serve as the Dolphins' starting right tackle for the rest of the regular season.
Jackson (knee) was placed on injured reserve Monday. Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters that Jackson's knee issue may require surgery and he was unable to practice all week, so his move to IR on Monday comes as no surprise. The 25-year-old will now be forced to miss the Dolphins' next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in Week 14 against the Jets. Expect Kendall Lamm to serve as Miami's top right tackle until Jackson can return to the field.
Jackson (knee) won't play against the Rams in Monday's Week 10 matchup, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Jackson has dealt with a knee issue all week and wasn't able to practice in any capacity. With the 2020 first-round draft pick unable to suit up Monday, Kendall Lamm is in line to start at right tackle for Miami.
