Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson has already been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings due to a shoulder injury, and will likely be unable to play in Week 11, too, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Rapoport added that the source described the rotator cuff injury as "not good."

While Jackson has been inconsistent this season, with the likes of Jamison Crowder eating up some of his targets, he remains one of the league's premier deep threats.

Without him, defenses could zero in on and disrupt the short passing game that quarterback Kirk Cousins favors.

Only twice in his nine-year career has Jackson been able to play all 16 regular-season games.
