Kareem Jackson, the veteran cornerback for the Denver Broncos, will meet with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Wednesday to discuss his recent four-game suspension. Jackson was suspended for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances.
Jackson has been a key part of the Broncos’ defense this season, starting in all 11 games and recording two interceptions. His absence will be a big blow for the team, as they have already lost two defensive starters to injury this season.
The suspension comes at a difficult time for Jackson, who is in the final year of his contract with the Broncos. He is set to become a free agent in the offseason and the suspension could hurt his chances of getting a new deal.
Jackson will have the opportunity to appeal his suspension at Wednesday’s meeting with Goodell. He is expected to argue that he did not knowingly take any performance-enhancing substances and that he should not be punished for something he did not do.
The meeting between Jackson and Goodell is an important one, as it could determine the outcome of Jackson’s suspension. If Jackson is successful in his appeal, he could be allowed to play in the Broncos’ remaining games this season. If not, he will have to sit out the rest of the year.
No matter what happens, Jackson’s meeting with Goodell will be closely watched by fans and media alike. It will be interesting to see how the situation plays out and if Jackson is able to get his suspension overturned.
