With ILB D'Qwell Jackson (hamstring) listed as doubtful for Week 5, rookie David Veikune is the leading candidate to step in for him.
Veikune was one of the team's second-round picks in April, coming out of Hawaii. He doesn't have a tackle through his first four games, playing mainly on special teams. Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson should both be productive Sunday against a Cleveland defense that's already poor against the run. Source: Akron Beacon-Journal
