2025 Fantasy Outlook
The veteran signed a three-year, $57 million contract in February after spending his first four years with the Rams. A recurring issue with blood clots, however, could jeopardize his availability for the 2025 campaign and may thrust recently signed D.J. Humphries into a starting role at left tackle.

On track with recovery
Head coach Sean McVay said Monday that Jackson (tailbone/blood clots) is "on track" with his rehab and is "in great shape right now," Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson has been working with the Rams' medical staff since June after he was diagnosed with blood clots. His availability for 2025 is very much up in the air, but it appears the 27-year-old offensive tackle is taking the right steps in his recovery. It's unclear who would serve as the Rams' starting left tackle if Jackson were to miss regular-season games. D.J. Humphries signed with the team in mid-June but did not play in the first two preseason games. Instead, it has been AJ Arcuri and David Quessenberry who have drawn the start at left tackle in the first and second preseason games, respectively.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The third-year tackle out of Iowa got a chance to shine in relief of Joe Noteboom, earning a few starts at left tackle before blood clots cost Jackson the final eight games of the season. He'll look to compete with Noteboom and seventh-round pick AJ Arcuri for the starting left tackle position.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Blood clot issues return
Jackson, who saw his 2022 season cut short by blood clots, is once again dealing with the issue this offseason, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was signed to a three-year, $57 million extension in February before the issues resurfaced, but Ian Rapoport of NFL Network confirmed June 13 that Jackson's blood clots had returned. The veteran offensive lineman, who was projected to protect Matthew Stafford's blind side, is still expected to play in 2025, but the possibility of some missed time certainly seems high.
