2. Eddie Jackson was pacing to be a Pro Bowler this year

This was going to be the best season that Eddie Jackson had since 2018. He was on pace to have nearly as many interceptions, and as noted, he was playing in a worse situation overall. Of course, the reason that he is not getting that praise has little to do with his play, and everything to do with an injury.

There are small whispers about his hefty contract and whether Chicago could keep him, but at the same time, it is hard to imagine him not playing here next season. If Jackson does return, he should be fine for week one considering the injury was only a month or two of rehabilitation.

A fully healthy Jackson, in year two of a scheme he just picked up but clearly was being used right could be a problem. When you add in that he may get pass rush help, it may have him turning a pick or two into a pick six or two.

If that is the case, Eddie Jackson is going to the Pro Bowl. If Jackson does not get hurt, he probably makes it this season without any questions.
