Kareem Jackson to miss Jacksonville Jaguars game

The Houston Texans have confirmed that Kareem Jackson will miss the team's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend.

The cornerback missed last week's clash with the Oakland Raiders with a fractured rib, which has prevented him from practising this week.

The 25-year-old told reporters: "It's actually a fracture to my first rib. It's kind of behind my collarbone so it's in a tough spot.

"I'm definitely feeling a lot better as opposed to the last couple weeks so I'm definitely looking forward to next week, doing more."

Jackson has made 35 tackles so far this season.
