Rotowire
Jackson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots due to a knee injury, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Jackson was able to walk off the field under his own power, and he'll have his knee injury monitored by medical staff to determine whether he can return. The Panthers would be down to just four defensive linemen if Jackson is unable to play, with Tershawn Wharton serving in rotation behind A'Shawn Robinson, Bobby Brown and Derrick Brown.

Panthers' Cam Jackson: Run stuffer joins Panthers

The Panthers selected Jackson in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 140th overall.
Jackson's an imposing force at defensive tackle, measuring in at 6-foot-6, 328 pounds. His wingspan is nearly 82 inches, and he swallows up running backs at the line of scrimmage. However, the 22-year-old offered limited impact as a pass rusher through five seasons (35 starts) between Memphis and Florida with 120 tackles and 9.5 tackles for loss but just 4.0 sacks. The Panthers already have Bobby Brown and Shy Tuttle on the roster at nose tackle, so Jackson's playing time could be sparse right out of the gate, and he may be limited to early downs.
