Eddie Jackson

The Chicago Bears have released Eddie Jackson.

Fantasy Impact

Jackson started every game he has appeared in since he was a fourth-round pick in 2017 by the Bears. He is a two-time All-Pro, and should have no problem finding a new team in free agency.

Bears safety Eddie Jackson (foot) has officially been ruled out for Thursday’s game with Washington.

Fantasy Impact

Jackson did not practice this week, so the move does not come as a surprise. The Bears’ secondary will also not have CB Jaylon Johnson (hamstring) Thursday night. Fantasy managers can leave the Bears D/ST on the waiver wire.

Chicago Bears S Eddie Jackson logged his second missed practice of the week as he deals with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact

Jackson missed the Bears' game in Week 3, in which they lost big against the Kansas City Chiefs. He does not seem to be on track to play in Week 4, and the Bears are dealing with multiple injuries in the secondary. This could set up the Denver Broncos for a potential bounce-back spot.

Bears DB Eddie Jackson is officially inactive for a Week 3 matchup with Kansas City.

Fantasy Impact

Jackson was listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game with a foot injury. This is a massive loss for the Bears’ secondary, considering this should make it easier for the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes to attack the middle of the field. Avoid the Bears’ defense in all formats.

According to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, FS Eddie Jackson (foot) is listed as doubtful for the Chicago Bears matchup at the Kansas City Chiefs.

Fantasy Impact

Jackson is an important part of the Bears defense, lining up deep at safety, but his absence could be amplified by the matchup. The Chiefs are heavy favorites heading into Week 3 and, without Jackson, could find a get-right game for the passing offense. This is a big hit for the Bears, assuming Jackson doesn’t play.
