New England Patriots cornerback J.C. Jackson is not expected to travel with the team to face the Indianapolis Colts this weekend in Frankfurt, Germany, NFL Network reported Wednesday.
Per the report, "questions about (Jackson's) reliability" contributed to the Patriots' decision to go without him this week. The team has a bye following Sunday's game.
Sports Illustrated reported that Jackson was late to the team hotel last Saturday, resulting in him being benched to begin New England's game against the Washington Commanders.
The Patriots can turn to cornerbacks Jonathan Jones, Jack Jones, Myles Bryant, Shaun Wade and Alex Austin to play in place of Jackson, who was acquired by the team in October.
