PHILADELPHIA (AP) \u2014 Philadelphia Eagles running back Ja\u2019Quinden Jackson was released from a hospital and traveled home with the team after he was injured in a preseason game at New England on Saturday night.<\/p>\n
Jackson tackled Lan Larison of the Patriots on the opening kickoff and lay motionless right after making the hit.<\/p>\n
The Eagles announced on Saturday night that Jackson had strength and movement in all extremities and had been taken to a hospital for further evaluation.<\/p>\n
After he was injured, medical personnel from both teams attended to him and quickly called for a backboard and ambulance.<\/p>\n
Players from both teams knelt near the sideline as Jackson was strapped onto a stretcher. Eagles players surrounded Jackson briefly before he was loaded into the ambulance and he was seen briefly raising his left arm.<\/p>\n
Jackson was on Jacksonville’s practice squad last season as a rookie. He ran for 2,148 yards and 29 touchdowns in college, spending his last year at Arkansas after three seasons at Utah.<\/p>\n
