Backup quarterback A.J. Feeley also was out for the second consecutive game because of a sprained right thumb.
Jackson, who participated in pregame warm-ups, finished the preseason with nine carries for 42 yards. Earlier in the week, Rams coach Steve Spagnuolo said it was 50-50 whether Jackson would play, perhaps to develop chemistry with No. 1 overall pick Sam Bradford.
Kenneth Darby, Chris Ogbonnaya and Keith Toston are vying for the Rams' backup running back job.
