Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson was ruled out Friday by head coach Dirk Koetter for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers, according to Scott Smith of the Bucs' official website.
Per Rotoworld, Jackson has been dealing with a thumb injury, and he wore a brace on his thumb during practice on Wednesday and Thursday, rendering him unable to catch passes.
In 11 games this season, Jackson has hauled in 40 receptions for 750 yards and four touchdowns.
Jackson has operated as one of the NFL's most dangerous deep threats throughout his 11-year career, which also includes time with the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Redskins.
