Jackson (knee) was limited at practice Thursday, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

After receiving a day off Wednesday, Jackson said that his knee "feels strong," and he's "confident" that he'll be able to suit up Sunday versus the Falcons. An appearance at drills, however limited, Thursday puts him in line to fulfill that belief, but Friday's injury report will have the final word on his Week 13 availability.

Jackson didn't practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, Roy Cummings of the Tampa Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson previously missed three games this season with a knee concern, but it's unclear if Wednesday's DNP is directly related. As the week continues, his practice participation will shed light on whether he'll be available to Jameis Winston on Sunday against the Falcons.

Jackson (undisclosed) was held out of practice Wednesday, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Following a three-game absence spurred by a knee injury, Jackson has put together back-to-back four-catch performances, totaling 132 yards and one touchdown on 16 targets. While his absence Wednesday could be related to the previous concern, or merely a veteran day off, head coach Lovie Smith will likely clarify the situation in short order.

Jackson played 54 snaps in Tampa's Week 12 loss to the Colts, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran saw 10 less plays than fellow starting wideout Mike Evans, but received the same amount of targets (10) and notched just one reception less than his teammate (four). Jackson moved around well and made a couple of particularly tough catches, demonstrating that he is back in full sync with quarterback Jameis Winston after the receiver's prior three-game absence due to a knee injury. The 11-year pro will look to make his mark in Week 13 versus a Falcons secondary that is sometimes vulnerable outside of stud corner Marcus Trufant.

Jackson secured four of 10 targets for 76 yards in Sunday's 25-12 loss to the Colts.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson snagged four balls for the second straight week but was targeted a robust 10 times, the same amount as fellow starting wideout Mike Evans. Despite being able to convert less than half of those looks into receptions, the 76 yards his four catches netted represent his second-highest total in that category on the season. Jackson looks to be fully recovered from the knee injury that previously caused him to miss three games. Jackson could potentially see an uptick in opportunity in the Week 13 home tilt versus the Falcons if Atlanta corner Marcus Trufant primarily shadows Evans.

Jackson was in on 61 snaps in the Week 11 victory over the Eagles, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Bucs wasted no time getting Jackson heavily involved in his return from a knee injury. The veteran receiver looked receptive and prepared for the workload thrust upon him, tallying his second-highest reception, yardage, and target totals on the year. Jackson appeared to emerge from the game no worse for wear, and should therefore receive another full complement of playing time in Week 12 versus the Colts.

Jackson secured four of six targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 45-17 victory over the Eagles.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson made a successful return after a three-game absence due to a knee injury, securing his third touchdown catch of the season and notching his highest reception total since Week 4 versus the Panthers. The veteran receiver's presence seemed to considerably open things up for rookie quarterback Jameis Winston, who tied a rookie record with five touchdown passes on the day. Jackson may see a spike in targets in Week 12 if the Colts opt to shadow Mike Evans with Vontae Davis.

Jackson (knee) is listed as active Sunday at Philadelphia, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson's ability to practice Thursday and Friday set the foundation for his return, bringing the Buccaneers one step closer to boasting an intact offense. With Austin Seferian-Jenkins (shoulder) still not medically cleared, Jackson will give Jameis Winston another proven receiving option next to Mike Evans in an otherwise uninspiring corps.

Jackson (knee) is expected to play Sunday at Philadelphia, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Buccaneers have thus audibled from their presumed mid-week position that Jackson would miss a fourth consecutive contest. Ultimately, his snap count will be contingent upon the health of his knee, which afforded limited practices Thursday and Friday, but plenty of targets should be available due to the Buccaneers' decimated receiving corps outside of Mike Evans.

Jackson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was reported early in the week that Jackson will likely miss a fourth straight game, but he subsequently returned to practice Thursday and Friday, albeit on a limited basis. He may be headed for a game-time decision, with his eventual return likely causing a dip in Mike Evans' massive target totals. There should still be quite a few looks to go around whenever Jackson returns, as the Bucs lack depth at wide receiver and still don't have TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins (shoulder).
