Jonah Jackson Unlikely To Play In NFC Championship
11 months agoDetroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that it's not looking good for left guard Jonah Jackson (knee) to play in this Sunday night's NFC Championship tilt against the San Francisco 49ers. Jackson left Sunday's Divisional Round win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first half with a knee injury and did not return. "Doesn't look really good for next week," Campbell said of the injuries. "But we'll see." Kayode Awosika filled in for Jackson at left guard for the rest of Sunday's game and figures to be the replacement there for the NFC Championship if Jackson is ultimately ruled out. The Lions offensive line is one of the their strengths, so Jackson's injury will certainly be something to watch as they get ready to take on a very strong 49ers defensive line in a game that will decide who advances to the Super Bowl from the NFC.
