Chargers' Justin Jackson (knee) designated to return from injured reserve

Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson has been designated to return from injured reserve.

What It Means:

Jackson has been on injured reserve for the mandatory 3 weeks as he recovers from a knee injury, and now he's been designated to come back to the team. Of course, this doesn't mean he's on the active roster just yet - the team has 21 days of practice time to decide when to bring him back officially. But whether it's this week or next, Jackson will be in the mix sooner than later.

Our models currently project Jackson for 30.7 rushing yards, 6.4 receiving yards, 0.2 touchdowns and 5.5 FanDuel points next week against the Atlanta Falcons.
