INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A person with knowledge of the injury says
Indianapolis Colts cornerback Marlin Jackson will miss the rest of
the season after tearing the ACL in his left knee.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of
anonymity because the Colts had not announced the injury. It
occurred during Thursday's practice.
The injury was first reported by ESPN and the Indianapolis Star.
Jackson made 23 consecutive starts at cornerback before tearing
the ACL and meniscus in his right knee during a no-contact practice
in October 2008.
He had missed the past three games with a strained ACL in his
right knee. Jackson's newest injury came a day after the Colts
placed linebacker Tyjuan Hagler on injured reserve with a ruptured
biceps.
The team declined to comment on Jackson's injury.
