The Facts:
It is increasingly likely that Jackson and left tackle Marcus McNeill will not sign with the Chargers until after the season’s 10th game according to Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune. They would come in then because they need six games to earn an accrued season. Still, it remains possible one or both could sit out the entire season.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Many wonder how two players who have made less than $3 million in their careers can afford to not play. But not being paid by the Chargers is not a concern to the two players, sources say. Jackson and McNeill are committed to seeing this protest through, and they have the means to weather not playing in 2010 and potentially 2011 should the owners lock out players. ... Stay tuned. Jackson's value will obviously decrease the longer this situation goes on -- meaning he could emerge as a draft-day steal if the situation is resolved late. It's worth watching.
