2022 Fantasy Outlook
If Jackson hadn't missed three games due to a hamstring issue and a stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list last season, he likely would have set a career high in tackles. In the end, though, he recorded 76, which was six short of his 82-stop tally from 2020. Those recent tackle totals give him a fair floor from week to week in IDP leagues. However, after posting five touchdowns and eight interceptions in his first two years as a pro in 2017 and 2018, he's scored once with two picks over the last three years. Unless he has a drastic turnaround, Jackson appears to be tackle-dependent on the IDP front. Read Past Outlooks

Began running three weeks ago
Jackson (foot) began running three weeks ago, according to Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune.
ANALYSIS
Jackson battled various nicks and dings last season, missing five games, but his season ended for good after Week 12 due to a Lisfranc injury. He didn't require surgery to fix the issue and still isn't back to 100 percent, but Jackson appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of OTAs. Jackson picked off four passes in 2022, his highest total since he compiled a career-high six interceptions in 2018.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2019
2018
After averaging four interceptions and 2.5 touchdowns per season in his first two years in the league, Jackson took a step backwards with just two interceptions and zero TDs in 2019. Of course, touchdowns are unpredictable, but for a player who was making his mark as an elite playmaker, fantasy owners who drafted him last year justifiably were disappointed. However, the Bears must feel confident in his ability to return to his previous levels of production after inking him to a four-year extension this offseason. Overall, the Bears were a bit of a disappointment as a defense in 2019, but they have the tools in place to be a top unit. If that's the case, Jackson will be undervalued on draft day and is a potential steal. Just don't forget that if the unit doesn't bounce back, a repeat of last year's production is squarely in his range of outcomes.
