Detroit Lions OTA Medical Watchlist: Dan Jackson S

[ASFN Admin]

The Detroit Lions' first OTA of 2026 kicked off on May 27. There are some players with injury concerns coming out of the 2025 season to keep an eye on. I compiled a list of players to watch, along with their OTA activity expectations.

Here is the excerpt on Dan Jackson from my Detroit Lions OTA Player Watchlist: May 2026:

Dan Jackson, S: Are there any injury residuals?​

Leg injury - August 2025

Jackson missed his entire rookie season with this leg injury - although roster management could have been part of the reason. It’s unknown the type and severity of the injury.

If Jackson is healthy, there is an opportunity for him to make an impact given the uncertain status of Branch and Joseph.

OTA expectations: Jackson should be able to participate fully.
