Kareem Jackson Suspended Four Games

Kareem Jackson Suspended Four Games

one year ago

The NFL has suspended Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson for four games for repeated violations of unnecessary roughness rules. Jackson is appealing the suspension, according to a source. He was ejected from the Week 7 win over the Green Bay Packers for a sideline hit on rookie tight end Luke Musgrave in the fourth quarter, which was the second time this year Jackson has been ejected from a game for an illegal hit. Entering Sunday's game, the 35-year-old had been fined four times in 2023 for unnecessary roughness for a total of $89,670. If his four-game suspension is upheld, Jackson wouldn't be eligible to return to the active roster until Nov. 27. It would be a pretty big blow to an already shaky defense in Denver.
