The Atlanta Falcons have confirmed they will be without running back Steven Jackson for their clash with the New York Jets.
The 30-year-old has missed Mike Smith's side's last two games against the Miami Dolphins and the New England Patriots with a hamstring injury, both of which ended in defeat for the Falcons.
Jackson missed all of his side's practices this week and as a result was not deemed fit enough to face Rex Ryan's side.
The Falcons are 1-3 going into their week five encounter.
