Dulac: Steelers No Longer Have To Send Draft Pick To Commanders In Exchange For William Jackson III

Earlier today, the Pittsburgh Steelers placed recently acquired cornerback William Jackson III on injured reserve, knocking him out at least four games. Jackson, along with a conditional seventh-round draft pick, was acquired from the Washington Commanders at the November 1 NFL Trade Deadline in exchange for a conditional sixth-round draft pick. However, according to Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Steelers no longer will be giving Washington the sixth-round selection as it was contingent on Jackson playing a certain number of games for the Steelers the rest of the season.

Steelers put CB William Jackson on injured reserve and it's possible he could return this season.
