Jackson (foot) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson entered the weekend questionable with a foot issue, and he won't suit up versus New York despite logging a limited practice session Friday. He had been slated for a larger role with Tre'Davious White (Achilles) out for the season, as Jackson played every defensive snap for the Bills last week against Jacksonville. Christian Benford will instead start opposite Taron Johnson at cornerback Sunday.

Jackson (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson managed limited participation at practice Friday after not practicing Wednesday and Thursday, at least giving himself a shot to suit up for Week 6. With long-time starter Tre'Davious White out for the season with a torn Achilles, Jackson may be Buffalo's second best healthy cover corner after Taron Johnson, though no one could seem to stop Calvin Ridley from having his way in last week's loss. Jackson is in line for a substantial role if he's able to play, but if his foot injury keeps him out, 2022 sixth-rounder Christian Benford could see more snaps than he might have otherwise. Fortunately for the Bills this week, the Giants lack star power in the passing game and won't even have starting quarterback Daniel Jones (neck).

Jackson (foot) practiced on a limited basis Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson played 100 percent of the snaps in the Week 5 loss to Jacksonville. With long-time starter Tre'Davious White out for the season with a torn Achilles, Jackson may be Buffalo's second best healthy cover corner after Taron Johnson, though no one could seem to stop Calvin Ridley from having his way in last week's loss. Fortunately for the Bills this week, the Giants lack star power in the passing game and won't even have starting quarterback Daniel Jones (neck).

Jackson, who saw a season-high 44 snaps while registering four tackles in Buffalo's win over Miami on Sunday, is in line for more playing time in the wake of Tre'Davious White's season-ending Achilles injury, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. "Dane, Christian, Kaiir, we expect those guys to step in and to play to the best of their ability," assistant coach Eric Washington said this week.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson may not be on the field 100 percent of the defensive snaps, as Taron Johnson plays a hybrid role and is out there most of the time in various roles, plus Kaiir Elam, a first-rounder from last season, will also be asked to step up, but Jackson could be in store for some bigger IDP production. If he starts this week in London against the Jaguars, it will be his 23rd start since being drafted by the Bills in the seventh round in 2020.

Jackson is in line to re-sign with the Bills, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Bills plan to tender restricted free agent Jackson after a productive season in 2022. The deal will likely be an original round tender at $2.7 million, which would make the 26-year-old cornerback a cost effective option in Buffalo's defensive backfield if he can build upon his solid 2022 campaign. Jackson finished the season with 57 tackles (40 solo), two interceptions, 12 passes defensed and one forced fumble.

Jackson will not start Sunday against the Bengals, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson left the team's wild-card win over the Dolphins with a knee injury, but he was able to close out the week with a full practice and shed his injury designation, ultimately being active for the divisional round. However, the 26-year-old will not draw the start Sunday opposite Tre'Davious White, and instead, Kaiir Elam will. Whether or not Jackson suffered a setback or is hampered by the injury is unclear.

Jackson (knee) logged a full practice Thursday and will be ready to play Sunday versus the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson exited the Bills' wild-card win over the Dolphins early with a knee issue, but it appears the cornerback suffered only a minor injury, so he's likely to start Sunday's playoff game against Cincinnati. Jackson will likely draw a tough assignment of either Ja'Marr Chase or Tee Higgins in the contest.

Jackson (knee) is day-to-day according to head coach Sean McDermott, Michael Giardi of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson was forced out of the team's win over the Dolphins on Sunday with the injury. His status for the AFC divisional round will likely remain in question leading up to the game. If he's ultimately unable to play, Kaiir Elam and Taron Johnson will likely see extra opportunities against the Bengals.

Jackson is questionable to return to Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Dolphins due to a knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson recorded three tackles (one solo) before exiting the contest with a knee injury. Kaiir Elam has replaced Jackson as the top cornerback opposite Tre'Davious White, but Buffalo is expected to rotate Taron Johnson in as well, per Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News.

Jackson (stinger) returned to Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson was forced out of Sunday's contest versus the Chiefs with a stinger injury but he's since returned to the field. The 25-year-old, along with Taron Johnson and Kaiir Elam, should continue operating as the Bills' top cornerbacks for the remainder of Sunday's game in Kansas City.
