LAR Alaric Jackson
NFL offensive lineman. Position: OT. Team: LAR.
Quick Facts
- Position: OT
- Team: LAR (Los Angeles Rams)
- Status: Facing legal situation; remains available for 2026 season
2026 Outlook
Alaric Jackson remains on the Rams roster despite facing ongoing legal proceedings. Per August 30 reporting, Jackson is not expected to be placed on paid leave in the immediate term, though he may face discipline depending on how his case progresses. He was arrested for domestic battery but will not face felony charges—a diversion program is on the table in lieu of misdemeanor charges. This creates potential for rehabilitation without extended absence, though any NFL discipline timeline remains uncertain (per Puka Nacua, Alaric Jackson won't be placed on paid leave today).
Jackson has previously served a two-game suspension under the Personal Conduct Policy, indicating the NFL has dealt with his behavior before. The diversion program framework suggests his legal path may avoid the extended exempt list status that has sidelined other players this offseason.
