Lucky Jackson News: Could begin season as No. 3 WR
Jackson and Tai Felton are the leading candidates to work as the No. 3 receiver to begin the season with Jordan Addison suspended the first three games for violating the league's Substances of Abuse Policy, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Jackson has been getting work with the first-team offense in camp with Justin Jefferson sidelined by a hamstring injury. Jalen Nailor will move up to the No. 2 spot while Addison is out, but the No. 3 spot is still unsettled. It's surprising that Jackson looks like the early leader for the role since he played only three games last year and got most of his snaps on special teams.
