Raiders' Gabe Jackson: Dealing with fractured elbow

Rotowire7 years ago

Jackson suffered a fractured elbow Week 14 against the Steelers, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

Analysis:

Jackson was placed on injured reserve earlier in the week but the specifics of his elbow injury were previously undisclosed. The 27-year-old also sustained a partially torn pectoral Week 1 against the Rams but didn't miss a snap until Week 15. Jackson will avoid surgery for either injury and should be back to full strength in 6-to-8 weeks, putting him in line to rejoin Oakland for OTAs.
