Report: Redskins WR DeSean Jackson to miss three to four weeks

Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson could reportedly be out up to four weeks.

Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson is expected to miss three to four weeks with a strained hamstring, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Jackson sustained the injured early during Washington's 17–10 loss to Miami on Sunday. While attempting to catch a Kirk Cousins deep ball, Jackson pulled up and limped off the field.

“Any time you lose a guy that runs a 4.25 40, it damages some of your play-action game,” Redskins coach Jay Gruden said after the game. “The first one we threw to [Jackson], he had a step [on the corner] and I believe he would have caught it if he didn't pull his hammy.”

Jackson missed the entire preseason with a separated shoulder. He missed only game last season, his first with Washington.
