Bennett Jackson Jr.

It was confirmed today that safety Bennett Jackson tore his ACL in last night's Giants-Jaguars pre-season game, and will miss the 2015 season.

Fantasy Impact

Horrible news. Jackson was a favorite to earn a starting spot at safety and was doubling as insurance as the nickel cornerback. This loss further impacts the Giants' overall D/ST ranking, since their safety situation is now dire. Obviously ignore Jackson in all IDP formats.

Incredible. Yet another potentially bad injury to a Giants safety. Jackson injured his knee on a defensive play in the fourth quarter and was seen leaving the Giants locker room limping badly and with his right knee in a brace.

Fantasy Impact

The loss of Jackson would be another huge blow to the Giants. Although fantasy irrelevant for IDP purposes, he was a favorite to earn a starting spot at safety and was doubling as insurance as the nickel cornerback. This potential loss will further impact the Giants' overall D/ST ranking, since their safety situation is now dire.
