Fantasy Impact:

Jackson, 32, could very well call it a career, as he is already the NFL's 16th leading all-time rusher with 11,388 yards. If he were to come back, he would most likely do so as a backup, and his upside as a handcuff would be limited. This places Devonta Freeman at the top of the Atlanta depth chart, but expect this promotion to be temporary, as there are going to be many talented options available to Atlanta in the draft or free agency.
