Jackson (calf) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against Atlanta, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Jackson missed the first three games of the regular season due to a calf injury he sustained during training camp. Jackson mostly played on special teams in 2023, but he could see playing time with the first-team defense Sunday after Demario Davis was ruled out due to a hamstring injury.

Jackson (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Jackson managed to log back-to-back limited practice sessions heading into the weekend, but he'll nonetheless miss a third straight regular-season game due to a lingering calf injury. The depth linebacker will target Week 4 on the road against Atlanta to retake the field.

Jackson (calf) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports. Jackson has not been able to participate in practice for two straight weeks, and he'll have to wait until Week 3 against the Eagles to make his regular-season debut. Anfernee Orji will serve as the top reserve linebacker for the Saints on Sunday behind starters Pete Werner, Demario Davis and Willie Gay.

Jackson (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, Jeff Nowak of Audacy Sports reports. The Appalachian State product failed to participate in any practice this week due to a calf injury, so being ruled out for Week 1 comes as no surprise. With Jackson, Jaylan Ford (hamstring) and Nephi Sewell (knee) all sidelined Sunday, Anfernee Orji remains the only reserve inside linebacker on the Saints' roster.

Jackson exited Thursday's practice due to a calf injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Jackson has started in both of the Saints' preseason contests and has accumulated five tackles (three solo) over that span. He's competing for a depth spot on New Orleans' linebacker corps behind starters Willie Gay, Demario Davis (hamstring) and Pete Werner (shoulder). Jackson operated mostly on special teams in 2023, finishing the season with 12 tackles (three solo) and a fumble recovery for a touchdown across 17 regular-season games.
