Austin Jackson: Everything you need to know

Jackson said Wednesday he's ahead of schedule in his recovery from a nagging toe injury he dealt with in 2025, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Jackson underwent surgery during the offseason to address the issue, and he now believes he'll be ready to return to the practice field for training camp in July. Barring any setbacks, he should be expected to suit up as Miami's starting right tackle come Week 1 at Las Vegas.

Jackson (back) underwent surgery during the offseason to address an injury he sustained last year, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports. Jackson was only able to appear in six games for Miami in 2025 due to various injury concerns, so it's not too surprising that he needed extra attention from physicians once the campaign concluded. When healthy, he projects to start at right tackle for the Dolphins in 2026.

Jackson (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Jackson will sit out Sunday's contest after being added to the Dolphins' injury report Friday with a back injury. In his absence, Larry Borom figures to start at right tackle against a New England pass rush that's struggled to get home for most of the season.
