Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson will suit up for Sunday night's game against the Green Bay Packers despite being listed as questionable with a shoulder injury, a source told Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk.
Head coach Jay Gruden said Friday that Jackson would likely be a game-time decision, but the pass-catcher is reportedly confident he'll feel good enough to play Sunday.
Jackson missed last week's win over the Minnesota Vikings, and it's somewhat surprising he'll be allowed to play against Green Bay, given the Redskins are dealing with an extra-short week.
