Steven Jackson to void contract -- Tue Feb 26 1:20 pm --
Will test free agency, Falcons would be good fit | Rams running back Steven Jackson will void the final year of his contract March 12, league sources told the Post-Dispatch on Monday. That means Jackson, the Rams’ career rushing leader, will test the free-agent market. One of the most likely suitors is Atlanta, which according to reports plans to release veteran back Michael Turner. (St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
FF Today's Take: This has been the consensus for some time now. Jackson is scheduled to make $7 million in 2013 and the Rams may have been forced to cut him if he elected to play in St. Louis in 2013. If the Falcons release Turner, Jackson would be a good fit bringing more speed and agility to go along with Jacquizz Rodgers.
