Jackson back with Seahawks after getting knocked out

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Seattle Seahawks defensive end Branden Jackson was back at the team facility Monday, two days after he suffered a head injury in a team scrimmage and was taken away in an ambulance.

Coach Pete Carroll said the team was going to be checking on Jackson to make sure he's OK.

"We’re going to be very deliberate about taking time," Carroll said. "Any time you get hit in the head like that we’ve got to make sure we take all of the time it takes and all of the considerations.”

Jackson, a fifth-year defensive end, appeared to collide helmet to helmet with offensive tackle Cedric Ogbuehi during a scrimmage Saturday at CenturyLink Field and seemed to be unconscious before he landed on the turf.
