He’s going to have a full complement of practice reps and there are no signs of his injury in Week 3 causing him problems in Week 4. Although, he may have to manage some pain and there could be some in-game aggravation risk.
The Bucs are going to start quarterback Mike Glennon, who hit Jackson for his first touchdown of the season during the fourth quarter of a humiliating Week 3 loss. The Steelers are also short-handed in the secondary with cornerback Ike Taylor out, which led to Carolina Panthers receiver Kelvin Benjamin lighting them up in Week 3.
Fantasy impact: Despite a slow start and this wrist injury, things are looking up for Jackson. He should be viewed as a solid WR2 with upside.
