The Facts:
Following up on a previous item. ... Jackson, who returned to the lineup after missing a month with a groin injury, scored his first touchdown of the season before leaving the game late in the first quarter with lower back pain. "It was back spasms," Jackson said. "It was overcompensation with my groin."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Jackson finished with 41 yards on eight carries and had one reception for 9 yards. Jackson tried to get back in the game, but couldn't. "We brought the chiropractor down," Jackson said. "You know, he tried to crack me up. Stretched me. He really worked on me to try and get it to loosen up. But that muscle just wouldn't cooperate with me today. ..." Sounds like the back issues are temporary -- and the Rams have a Week 9 bye, but we'll have more on Jackson's status going forward when the team addresses it further.
