Panthers' Mike Jackson: Remaining on IR for Week 10
Rotowire
Jackson (groin) has been downgraded from doubtful to out for Sunday's game against the Saints, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Jackson's 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, and he drew the doubtful tag for Sunday's game after logging a trio of limited sessions. He's not quite ready to return from a groin injury that landed him on IR in late September, and his next opportunity to suit up is Week 11 against the Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 22.

Panthers' Mike Jackson: Unlikely to return for Week 10
Rotowire
Jackson (groin) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against New Orleans.
Jackson was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, which cleared him to practice during Week 10 prep. He logged a trio of limited practices, but the doubtful tag indicates that the veteran defensive back will spend at least one more week on IR. If he's not cleared to play in Week 10, then Jackson's next opportunity to play would be Week 11 against the Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 22.
The Panthers are designating Jackson (groin) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, opening his 21-day practice window, Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Jackson was placed on injured reserve late in September after suffering a groin injury in Week 3 against Cleveland. The 29-year-old's potential return would greatly help a depleted Carolina secondary, which lost both Jackson and Jaycee Horn (quadriceps) early in the season. Jackson has five tackles (three solo) in his two full regular-season games.

Head coach Dave Canales stated the team plans to take "the next two days to discuss" Jackson (groin), Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.
Jackson underwent core-muscle surgery in September and has been on injured reserve to this point in the season. While he was expected to be evaluated after eight weeks, there haven't been any real updates regarding his return to the field. The 2019 No. 158 overall pick has appeared in 74 regular-season games during his career, accruing 262 total tackles (209 solo), one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries and one touchdown.
Head coach Dave Canales said Wednesday that Jackson (groin) underwent core-muscle surgery and will be sidelined about eight weeks, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
The Panthers are in a code-red situation at cornerback after both starters, Jackson and Jaycee Horn (quadriceps), suffered significant injuries against Cleveland in Week 3. Ahead of a date with Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams on national television Sunday night, Carolina will be relying on Will Lee, Akayleb Evans and Chau Smith-Wade to cover the snaps.

Will Lee, Akayleb Evans and Chau Smith-Wade will handle cornerback duties for the foreseeable future.
