When asked if Jackson is considered &#8220;day-to-day&#8221;, Harbaugh responded evasively, preferring not to comment on the matter.\n\nHarbaugh confirmed that he spoke extensively with Jackson on Tuesday and that the player has been present at all team meetings. &#8220;Lamar is working,&#8221; Harbaugh said. &#8220;He&#8217;s doing a great job.&#8221;\n\nSince the end of the 2022 season, Jackson, a two-time NFL Most Valuable Player, has not missed a game due to injury.
