Steelers Cornerback Aggravates Injury Again
PITTSBURGH — Cornerback Donte Jackson is once again dealing with the back injury that has already cost him a bunch of playing time down the stretch run of the 2024 Pittsburgh Steelers season.
Jackson was listed as limited in practice on Wednesday, after having been a full participant on Tuesday. His status for Saturday’s Week 18 game against the Cincinnati Bengals is now in question.
Jackson was first injured during the team’s Week 14 in over the Cleveland Browns, with what he later described as a pinched nerve. Jackson returned to that game and started in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles, but he suffered an aggravation in that game, left the contest and was unable to return.
The Steelers held Jackson out in Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens. He returned last week and played a full game against the Kansas City Chiefs, but apparently his injury is now bothering him once again.
If Jackson is unable to play against the Bengals, Cory Trice or James Pierre would likely start in his place. Pierre started against the Ravens in place of Jackson and again against the Chiefs, when Joey Porter Jr. was out with a knee injury.
