Eagles activating DeSean Jackson (ankle) from injured reserve
The Philadelphia Eagles will activate wide receiver DeSean Jackson (ankle) from the injured reserve today ahead of tomorrow's Week 16 game against the Dallas Cowboys, Tom Pelissero of the NFL reports.
What It Means:
Jackson has appeared in just 7 of a possible 32 games over the past two seasons with the Eagles, but he has been an important option as the team's deep receiver whenever he has been healthy. His presence, even if it is limited, could give quarterback Jalen Hurts a slight boost for Week 16.
Jackson is unlikely to have much of an impact for fantasy in his first game back since Week 7, but he could be a difference maker for Hurts as a field stretcher. Hurts is currently projected as numberFire's QB5 for Week 16 and has an $8,200 salary on FanDuel.
