Jackson is dealing with a knee injury and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson was a limited participant at practice this week after he apparently sustained the injury in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. The Bengals can ill afford to be without the 25-year-old as they attempt to contain Antonio Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster on Sunday. Tony McRae and Darqueze Dennard would be in line for increased roles if Jackson is ultimately unable to suit up.

Jackson (knee) has avoided the inactive list Sunday against the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson has been on the field for 60 or more snaps in four consecutive weeks, picking up the work left behind by the placement of Adam Jones (groin) on IR. Look for a similar workload Sunday, as Jackson is in line to start opposite Dre Kirkpatrick.

Jackson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson has seen an increased workload since Adam Jones (groin) was placed on injured reserve. In his last four games, he's accrued 12 tackles (nine solo) and six pass breakups. If Jackson is unable to play Sunday, expect Tony McRae to see an increased workload in his place.

Jackson (toe) practiced without limitations Thursday and is in line to play Sunday against the Browns, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson normally provides depth to the Bengals secondary, but with Darqueze Dennard battling a knee injury, he could see an even higher snap count. Still, the second-year pro has accrued 14 tackles, one sack, seven pass breakups and one interception return in his limited role. If Dennard is unable to play, see Jackson as a high-risk, high reward and cheap option for Week 12.

Jackson (toe) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis

Jackson (toe) practiced at full capacity Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Zac Stevens of BSNDenver.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson progressed from not practicing Wednesday and being limited Thursday, but he still carries an injury designation because of the possibility of a setback. The second-year pro has been playing a high snap count as the No. 3 Bengals' corner, accruing 14 tackles, one sack, seven pass breakups and a pick six. If he's unable to play, Josh Shaw and KaiVarae Russell will see an increased snap count.

Jackson (toe) isn't practicing Wednesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson sustained a seemingly minor toe injury during last Sunday's game in Tennessee, so it's possible the Bengals are simply giving him the day off in order to fully recover. His level of participation in practice Thursday and Friday will shed more light on the situation.

EDGE Analysis
Jackson has received a lot of reps in the preseason to help make up for missing his entire rookie season with a torn pectoral. HIs competition for the start is Darqueze Dennard, though both will log significant playing time.

EDGE Analysis
Jackson didn't log a single snap his rookie year due to a pectoral injury he suffered in the preseason. Now back to full health, he'll compete with Darqueze Dennard, Josh Shaw and Bene Benwikere for playing time behind starters Adam Jones and Dre Kirkpatrick.
