William Jackson III made our list of ten potential replacements for injured cornerback Avonte Maddox, and according to Jordan Schultz, the veteran is in Philadelphia for a workout.

Maddox is out indefinitely and could miss the remainder of the season after suffering a torn pectoral muscle.
The Steelers traded for Jackson at the deadline last season in a deal with the Washington Commanders. The veteran cornerback never appeared in a game, was placed on injured reserve with a back issue, and never played a snap for the Steelers.
Jackson was a salary cap casualty but could provide depth and experience if healthy.
