08/12/2010 - Berea, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Cleveland Browns linebacker D'Qwell Jackson will rest for the next few weeks and then be re-evaluated after suffering a serious injury to his right pectoral muscle.
Jackson had his 2009 season cut short after suffering a torn left pectoral muscle in Week 6 against Pittsburgh. He led the league in tackles a year earlier with 154 stops in starting all 16 games.
The 26-year-old was initially going to hold out of training camp after skipping minicamp and offseason practices before signing his 2010 tender in June. He suffered the latest injury at practice Tuesday and head coach Eric Mangini indicated the team will take a cautious approach.
"Right now, the plan is to just let it quiet down for a few weeks and then see where we are at that point and go from there," Mangini said at his press conference Thursday. "What we'll do is we'll let him rehab for the next couple of weeks and then re-evaluate him at that point."
The Cleveland Plain-Dealer reported earlier that the injury will keep Jackson sidelined for 4-to-8 weeks and that he was seeking a second opinion.
Jackson added three interceptions and two sacks to his standout performance in 2008 in just his third year in the league. He totaled 59 tackles and a forced fumble before his injury in 2009 and has 407 career stops, three sacks and four picks in 49 games for Cleveland over parts of four seasons.
He was a second-round pick of the Browns in 2006 out of Maryland.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
