Dallas Cowboys: Retirement and injury wrecking havoc on linebacker corps

When news broke yesterday that a Dallas Cowboys linebacker had torn his ACL in camp, you’d be forgiven for thinking it was Sean Lee. This time, it was the recently acquired Justin Jackson.

Jackson, out of Wake Forest, went undrafted in 2014 and has spent time on the Detroit Lions, Cincinnati Bengals, Oakland Raiders and the Washington Redskins rosters. While he may not have been considered a lock to make the team, it’s never nice to see player go down so early in the year. Unfortunately for Jackson, this is an injury he knows all too well.
