The Cincinnati Bengals won’t get a shot at former first-round pick William Jackson when they play the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11.
Jackson, Cincinnati’s 24th overall pick in 2016, demanded a trade out of Washington before the deadline and got his wish, getting shipped to Pittsburgh.

Not long after, the Steelers wound up placing Jackson on injured reserve due to a back issue.
For Bengals fans (and former cornerback Adam Jones), that’s something of a disappointment given the way Jackson’s tenure with the Bengals ended on such a sour note.
It’s also an interesting addition to the fact the Bengals might not encounter star Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick when the two AFC North rivals get together this weekend.
