The Colts cut Jackson from the practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson signed with the Colts' practice squad back in September when a spot opened up because Daurice Fountain was promoted to the active roster. Now, Fountain is back on the practice squad, so Jackson has been shown the door. Jackson has yet to play an NFL game since the 2018 season.

Jackson signed with the Colts' practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson last played in Week 17 of the 2018 season for the Cowboys, and he rushed six times for 16 yards. Reserve running back Jordan Wilkins is battling an ankle injury, so Jackson will join the organization in case it's a long-term issue.

EDGE Analysis
Jackson signed with Tampa Bay's practice squad last week but will now be looking for a new team. The 25-year-old was a sixth-round pick by the Cowboys in 2016, and he's already spent time on the Cowboys', Colts', and Buccaneers' practice squads this season.

Jackson was signed to the Buccaneers' practice squad Wednesday, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson entered the league as a sixth-round pick of the Cowboys in 2016 and has gone on to play in four career games while also spending time on the Colts' practice squad. He'll serve as organizational depth for the time being and would presumably have a chance to jump to the active roster were injuries to strike Ronald Jones or Peyton Barber.

Jackson was cut from the Colts' practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson originally joined the practice squad Friday. The 25-year-old has seen a fall from grace since operating as the top running back for the Cowboys in training camp. Jackson has the ability to at least provide a team with depth at running back, but for now he'll have to find another opportunity elsewhere in the league.

Jackson signed to the Colts' practice squad Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson was previously on the Cowboys' practice squad before getting let go. All-in-all he has suited up for four career NFL games, compiling 16 yards on 6 carries in the process. With four running backs on the Colts' depth chart, Jackson has the potential to be called up if one of them ultimately miss time due to injury.

EDGE Analysis
Jackson originally signed to the practice squad Sep. 10. The 25-year-old served as the team's top back at the start of training camp while Ezekiel Elliott held out, but he ultimately didn't make the 53-man roster. He'll now have to find another opportunity elsewhere.
