New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick suggested Friday that cornerback J.C. Jackson will be back with the team following their Week 11 bye.
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Belichick said, "I think he'll be available," when asked about Jackson's status after Week 10, and when asked why Jackson did not travel with the team for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts in Germany, Belichick added, "That was the decision. I don't want to get into it."
Rapoport previously reported that Jackson was not expected to join the team in Germany due to "questions about his reliability" and the desire to have him "return in a better place" after the bye.
