Rams starting LT Alaric Jackson out vs. Giants for personal reasons

Rams starting left tackle Alaric Jackson popped up on the injury report Friday with a thigh injury, causing him to be listed as questionable to play against the Giants. The Rams announced on Sunday that Jackson won’t play, but it’s not because of his injury.

According to the team, Jackson is out today against the Giants due to personal reasons. No further information has been disclosed, but Los Angeles will now be without its starting left tackle in New York.

His backup, Joe Noteboom, is also questionable to play, though he was active last week against the Saints despite dealing with a foot injury.

Jackson has started 14 of the Rams’ 15 games this season, helping the offensive line play at a high level for much of the year. He’s a former undrafted free agent out of Iowa who has exceeded all expectations in his three years with the Rams.
