INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - 24-Hour News 8 has learned that Colts Cornerback Marlin Jackson is out for the season.
In an odd coincidence, Jackson tore the ACL in his left knee Wednesday on the final play of practice.
It's the second straight year that Jackson has been sidelined by a torn ACL suffered in a Wednesday practice. Last year, Jackson tore his right ACL.
The 2005 first round draft pick from Michigan told 24-Hour News 8 last Sunday that he had planned on being back in the starting lineup against Houston.
Making matters worse is that he's in the final year of his contract, so he may have played his last game with the Colts.
