Landon Jackson

How our call moved this week

• our call, P(plays)

88% EXPECTED → 88% EXPECTED

Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.

In short

Landon Jackson is in the rotation at left defensive end for BUF — 43% of the snaps in his best week of 5. He has a knee injury. His team named him inactive in week 5. This week he practised in full every day the report covers. His team has not listed him on the final report. We say he plays — 88%, in a band that plays 96% of the time. We have said PLAY since 57 hours before kickoff. We called him PLAY in week 5 and he did not play.

The reader concurs · grade B

The only club-sourced in-window evidence remains the 15 Oct report listing 'DL Landon Jackson' among full practice participants (P2), matching the model's FULL input and showing no knee aggravation. P2 also notes 'the only new names here are C.J. Gardner Johnson and TJ Parker,' so Jackson's full participation is continuing rather than fresh (P2), and the club's own 16 Oct gallery caption shows him working with the defensive line group at that 15 Oct session (P1). Nothing written contradicts a PLAY call; the gap is simply the absence of a late-week designation or inactives list, which keeps this at B rather than A. It would need to know: Bills' final injury report for Fri 16 Oct or Sat 17 Oct showing whether Jackson carries a game designation (Out/Doubtful/Questionable/None); Official inactives list released ~90 minutes before the Sun 18 Oct kickoff; Any Sean McDermott or Joe Brady remark this week specifically on Jackson's knee or his rotational snap count; Status of fellow rotational DL (DeWayne Carter, Greg Gaines, Zane Durant, Ed Oliver) for Sun 18 Oct, which would raise or lower Jackson's need to dress
