Landon Jackson Injury Update: Bills Rookie Says He's ‘Fully Good to Go' for NFL Training Camp 2025
Landon Jackson confirms he is fully fit at MafiaCon 2025 after briefly landing on Bills' PUP list (Image credits: IG/X) The Buffalo Bills' third-round draft pick Landon Jackson has officially shut down doubts about his health status ahead of training camp. Days after being placed on the active/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list due to an undisclosed injury, Jackson made a high-energy appearance at MafiaCon 2025 and confirmed what fans and coaches were hoping to hear — he's ready. The rookie defensive end, expected to be a key part of Buffalo's defensive front, is now set to fully participate when camp opens at St. John Fisher. PUP list no longer a concern for Bills rookie The Bills raised eyebrows on July 15 by placing Jackson on the PUP list before camp began, sparking speculation about a potential lingering offseason issue. With no official details released, fans and analysts questioned whether the 6-foot-6, 264-pound edge rusher would miss valuable early reps. But just days later, while speaking to Trainwreck Sports at MafiaCon, Jackson confirmed that he's healthy and set to go. 'I'm ready to get going… I'm gonna be fully good to go for camp. So I am really excited about it.' For Head Coach Sean McDermott and Defensive Coordinator Bobby Babich, it's a major relief. Jackson was one of the most athletic edge prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft — recording a 4.68-second 40-yard dash and a 40.5-inch vertical jump — both elite for his position. Buffalo invested $6.62 million in his rookie deal, including $1.45 million guaranteed, with hopes that he'd contribute immediately. MafiaCon 2025 doubled as a statement moment While MafiaCon is known for fanfare and beer-fueled table dives, this year's event doubled as a news break. Jackson, appearing comfortable and confident, mingled with fans, soaked in the Bills Mafia energy, and casually delivered the camp update that had social media buzzing. 'Really enjoyed… you know getting to meet all the Bills Mafia, interacting with the fans… it has been great. I've really enjoyed it — a great community. ' The public appearance also gave Jackson a chance to display his personality — something that doesn't always show on tape. With a calm yet assured demeanor, he handled questions about his body and readiness with maturity well beyond his years, matching the high-character profile Buffalo's staff praised on draft night. Jackson aims to be more than just depth in 2025 Beyond the athletic numbers, Buffalo believes they drafted a long-term defensive piece. W ith 16 career sacks and close to 28 tackles for loss in college, Jackson's productivity mirrors his potential. Babich previously highlighted his 'three-down upside' and mental sharpness. Jackson, however, is focusing on something simpler first. 'Personal goal? For starters, earn the trust of my teammates and coaches… that's the only way as a rookie you can get on the field and excel,' he told Trainwreck Sports.

If he delivers on his potential, Buffalo may have landed more than a role player — they may have found a future defensive star. FAQs 1. What college did Landon Jackson play for? He played at Arkansas, where he stood out as a dominant edge rusher in the SEC. 2. What is the height and weight of Landon Jackson? He's 6-foot-6 and weighs around 264 pounds — ideal size for a modern NFL defensive end. 3. What round was Landon Jackson drafted in? He was selected in the third round, 72nd overall, by the Buffalo Bills in the 2025 NFL Draft. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!

Interesting Details of Eagles' Super Bowl Ring Explained
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. On Friday night, the Philadelphia Eagles got to celebrate their Super Bowl victory once again. The 2024 roster gathered in Philly for a party, and each player received their unique-styled rings, designed by Jason of Beverly Hills. As always, the ring has plenty of important details that tell the story of the Eagles' entire 2024 season. Diamonds are a Bird's best friend — Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) July 19, 2025 In the word "Champions," there are 40 points of diamonds to represent the Eagles' points scored in the Super Bowl matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. On the wings of the rings, there are 0.9 carats to represent the six sacks and three takeaways in the Super Bowl. As dominant as the two-way effort was, the Eagles' defense was absolutely critical as they shut down the MVP-caliber quarterback, Patrick Mahomes. In order to get to the Super Bowl, the Eagles had a dominant regular season, which helped them gain home-field advantage in the postseason for the first round, at least. The bracket ended up giving them a home game for each playoff matchup.

After a 2-2 start, they fired off 10 wins in a row, which proved to the NFL they were the real deal. On the Super Bowl LIX logo, there are 10 points of diamonds to represent that streak. In total, the Eagles finished the year with 18 wins. Therefore, there are 18 green stones on the ring. On the inside of the ring, there is a Brazilian flag, which is where the season started. Although it was an Eagles home game, the team played one of the few international games this year. The Eagles defeated the Green Bay Packers in Brazil to kick off their big year. Right under the flag is a motto, inspired by the head coach, Nick Sirianni. "Tough, Detailed, Together," it says. Under the motto is a list of scores throughout the Eagles' playoff run, which included games against the Packers, Los Angeles Rams, Washington Commanders, and the Chiefs. The No. 145 represents the Eagles' NFL record of most points scored in the postseason. Perhaps, the most popular part of the ring is the wings. With the hit of a button, they pop out. The five diamonds on the button are there to represent the five players who scored points in the Super Bowl (Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, Cooper DeJean, DeVonta Smith, and Jake Elliott). It's all in the details — Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) July 19, 2025 Lastly, the wings have a hidden message, which also comes from Sirianni: "You can't be great without the greatness of others." While Sirianni has dealt with a lot of criticism throughout his tenure with the Eagles, he has overcome all of that and shines as a motivator within the organization. Clearly, his messages have stuck with the team and will remain with them forever, as the Super Bowl ring sheds light on those mottos.
