Jackson currently is the top vote getter at free safety in the NFC.The Bears were alarmed by the sight of star safety Eddie Jackson falling to the turf with a non-contact foot injury, and given how quickly the team ruled him out for the rest of the game, there was fear it’d be season-ending.
That concern lingered at Halas Hall on Monday, when coach Matt Eberflus said the severity still hadn’t been determined, but he was prepared to “get some young guys ready to play” if Jackson heads to injured reserve.
Jackson isn’t replaceable, though — not when he’s been playing at this level.
