Houston Texans first-round cornerback Kareem Jackson's five-year deal carries a maximum value of $16.3 million, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.

Jackson's guaranteed money is worth a total of $10.35 million.

Jackson recorded 159 career tackles and five interceptions as a three-year starter at Alabama, deflecting 29 career passes before declaring early for the NFL draft.

Known as a fundamentally sound cornerback and a willing tadckler, the 5-foot-10, 196-pounder runs the 40-yard dash in 4.4 seconds.

He's projected to start immediately.

I wish him only the best. Get well, young man.
This stuff happens, didn't cause Terrell Davis to retire, as that actually was the knee injury he sustained while tackling a Jet on an INT - that being said he was always and the donkeys cognizant of this issue with Daivs as well...migraines and nuerological problems are real for damn sure and don't make an NFL players life any easier - and seriously "karma" - give it a rest already - Favre's not the devil, hasn't been sighted hanging with Lucifer or sacrificying any virgins - well lately anyway - that was the "before PG Favre" that's marketed for mass consumption...
