Eagles' DeSean Jackson practices fully on Wednesday
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson
practiced Wednesday after being medically cleared to participate after suffering a concussion on a tremendous hit from Atlanta Falcons cornerback Dunta Robinson. The hit received national attention as one of many high-profile and illegal hits. But after 17 days, Jackson was back on the field with his team and he expressed how it felt to be back. "It feels good," Jackson said Wednesday. "Being away from the games and practices and things like that has been hard, to sit around and just watch and stuff, so it's good to get back out there and get going." Jackson's status to play this weekend against the Indianapolis Colts is still unclear and is listed as questionable.
Fantasy Analysis:
With quarterback Michael Vick and Jackson returning this week, the Eagles get a much needed boost to their offense. Backup signal caller Kevin Kolb struggled spreading the ball to Jackson and seemed to have better chemistry with Jeremy Maclin. In any case, Jackson seems like a starter this week even though the questionable tag is lingering over the situation. The Eagles will need their full arsenal out there against the Colts this week. Go ahead and insert Jackson back into your lineup and follow the situation through the weekend. Considering he was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, he should be fine on Sunday as the questionable tag seems precautionary at this point.
