MANKATO, Minn. - Minnesota Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson left the field on Saturday morning with an apparent leg injury.
Jackson was injured during a team scrimmage when defensive lineman LeTroy Guion fell at his feet and rolled over his leg. Jackson crumbled to the field in pain as trainers rushed to his side. After a few minutes, he was able to get up and walk off under his own power.
There was no immediate word on the nature of his injury.
Jackson is in a battle with Sage Rosenfels for the starting quarterback position after Brett Favre decided not to come out of retirement and join the Vikings.

Agree. A very bad joke at the least, he'll feel like a loser if that knee swells up like a pumpkin and they find additional damage to Jackson's knee in the coming days. Knee injuries are difficult to asess accurately when the asessments are being done in close proximity to the time that the injury is incurred.
