If the Broncos decide to formally elevate him before Monday, they will need to release a player to make room for Jackson. Coach Sean Payton said on Wednesday (20) that there is not a decision yet. Safety P.J. Locke has been playing in Jackson’s place, and started five games so far.
This was the second suspension for Jackson this season, a total of six games. He has been ejected from two games this season, forfeited $559,889 in salary for the four-game suspension and another $279,000 for the two-game ban. The safety was also fined $89,670 for other unnecessary roughness penalties.
