The Facts:
Mike Holmgren said Jackson likely will not play until the team's Aug. 26 exhibition game at San Diego. "His knee is pretty good," the coach said Thursday. "But his muscles in his quad and so on have to be stronger, so he doesn't re-injure anything. ..." Holmgren also said that D.J. Hackett, who had been getting Jackson's preseason practice plays with the first-team offense, will miss two to three weeks with a strained right hamstring.
