Jackson has missed six games this season after suffering an abdominal injury in the Week 2 games against Atlanta.
Jackson opted against surgery and has been taking the time to heal, but when he does return he is not expected to be 100 percent.
"I expect to get him into practice today to see where he is. We will take it day to day, but we are optimistic." - Doug Pederson on DeSean Jackson
