Packers' Don Jackson did not break hand in Week 7
Green Bay Packers running back Don Jackson didn't suffer a broken hand in the Week 7, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.
Jackson, making his NFL debut last week, received just two carries before leaving in the second quarter. The swelling has gone down, and he could play against the Atlanta Falcons this week. That said wide receiver Ty Montgomery has taken over this backfield, and trade acquisition Knile Davis should have a better grip of the playbook at this point.
We do project Jackson as the highest-ranked Packers running back for fantasy in Week 8, with 4 touches for 24 total yards and 0.17 touchdowns. This ranks him 48th, though; Montgomery should see most of the work out of the backfield.
