Bummer. Was hoping he would be a nice #3 for us this year. We will need some of the young guys to step up.
Daniel Jackson likely out for the year

Well that sucks. It is a loaded WR room and this shouldn't have a huge impact considering the depth but he is the kind of player that just does the work and is consistently there. Was hoping he might have a nice year with all the other receivers requiring defensive attention.
That dude just can't catch a break.
Can he medical RS and come back for an extra year?
Might not be terrible in the long term considering what's departing after this season...

With his health luck he might say screw it, graduate and move on.
As a 2020 enrollee, he has a COVID sixth year available.

i think he could apply for a medical RS, but he was a freshman in 2020, so i think he might also still have a covid year available?
I don't know the background of his previous injuries, but are they all related in some way to the accident he was in a while back?

For the team, this isn't a huge loss considering the depth we have at WR.
But this sucks for Jackson. He really showed that he can do great things when he's healthy... and then he gets hurt again.

My bad, I was enjoying the Hawkeye QB reports too much and karma struck…
Not trying to be insensitive towards Jackson as this obviously is a huge blow to him but this may actually be a good thing for the team.
We have tons of depth at receiver with limited snaps to play everyone. Losing Jackson will allow some of our young guys to get more reps. Next year losing Noel and Higgins is going to hurt. Keeping Jackson on that team is going to help next years team a lot more than this years team.
I would compare this to the 2015-16 season losing Naz. Obviously we would have loved to have him that season but him staying next playing with Thomas and Monte helped that team tremendously.
I don't want to undersell an injury. I hope he makes a full recovery and can help next years team.
