Indianapolis Colts CB Marlin Jackson to miss remainder of regular season

Indianapolis Colts CB Marlin Jackson will miss the remainder of the season.

Jackson, for the second time in as many seasons, has sustained a season-ending anterior cruciate ligament injury during a midseason practice, the Indianapolis Star and ESPN are reporting.

Jackson confirmed to the Star Thursday afternoon that he had sustained a torn left AFC in practice Wednesday.

A first-round selection in the 2005 NFL Draft, Jackson missed the last half of last season with torn ligaments in his right knee sustained during a late October practice. He returned this season and had played as the Colts’ nickel corner until missing the last three games with a left knee injury.

The Colts’ injury report Thursday:

Did not practice – WR Anthony Gonzalez (knee), CB Kelvin Hayden (knee), Jackson (knee), DE Robert Mathis (not injury related-rested), S Bob Sanders (elbow), S Jamie Silva (hip), WR Reggie Wayne (not injury related-rested), K Adam Vinatieri (right knee).
