The Broncos should not bench P.J. Locke when Kareem Jackson returns

Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson has sat out three of the four games of his suspension since Week 12. After the Broncos face the Detroit Lions in Week 15, Jackson’s suspension will end.

The veteran safety will be eligible to return in Week 16 when Denver hosts the New England Patriots on Christmas Eve.

P.J. Locke has been starting in Jackson’s place and he has played exceptionally well, totaling 22 tackles (including two behind the line of scrimmage), three sacks, three quarterback hits, two forced fumbles and two pass breakups.
