The Lions waived Jackson on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson hasn't played since suiting up in four games across the Browns, Colts and Giants in 2023. The Duke product posted the third-most rushing yards (417) in the UFL this spring. The 26-year-old will be a practice-squad candidate.

The Lions signed Jackson to a contract Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson recently played in the UFL with the DC Defenders and posted 441 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 83 carries while adding seven catches for 39 yards. He last saw NFL regular-season action in 2023, when he appeared in four games between the Colts (two), Browns and Giants (one game each) and logged 14 carries for 16 yards. Jackson's addition solidifies the Lions' backfield depth while Sione Vaki (leg) is sidelined.

Jackson was waived by the Jets on Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson opened last season as the Colts' Week 1 starting running back while Jonathan Taylor was on the PUP list. However, he struggled with only 14 yards on 13 carries in the opener and was cut less than two weeks later. Jackson subsequently found work with the Browns and Giants, then signed a contract with the Jets this August. However, he won't be on the team's 53-man roster after gaining just 18 yards on eight carries during the preseason.

Jackson signed a contract with the Jets on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson bounced between the Colts, Browns and Giants last season, seeing action in four regular-season games. The Duke product managed to net only 16 yards on 14 carries, but he did have a little better success in 2022, when he averaged 3.5 YPC on 68 attempts. The 25-year-old will compete with rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, as well as with second-year pro Israel Abanikanda, for a spot behind Breece Hall at running back.

Houston worked out Jackson (undisclosed) on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson was waived by the Giants with an injury settlement back in May, so he's now looking for another opportunity to make an impression. Given that the Texans signed Joe Mixon this offseason, still have Dameon Pierce under contract and just spent a draft pick on Jawhar Jordan, the path to a roster spot in Houston would be narrow for Jackson even if he did get signed.

Jackson (undisclosed) was waived from injured reserve by the Giants on Tuesday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson was waived with an injury designation by New York on May 10 and placed on IR after clearing waivers. He'll now have the opportunity to find a new team for the 2024 campaign once he can prove that he's healthy.

The Giants waived Jackson (undisclosed) with an injury designation Friday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson suited up for both Cleveland and Indianapolis in 2023, but he demonstrated a tendency to fumble the ball away and thus spent most of last season on the bench. If he clears waivers, he'll reverted to injured reserve.

Jackson signed a reserve/future contract with the Giants on Monday, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson made appearances with the Colts and Browns this season, before ultimately finding his way to the Giants. The Duke product ended up totaling four appearances on the year, with 14 carries for 16 yards and five catches on six targets for 14 more yards through the air. He'll now have an opportunity to carve out a bigger role next season in New York.

The Giants signed Jackson to their practice squad Wednesday, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Just a couple days after cutting him, the Giants have now decided to bring Jackson back on board. As long as Saquon Barkley and Matt Breida remain healthy, Jackson's path to playing time is still virtually nonexistent.

The Giants waived Jackson on Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson has appeared in four games for three different teams this season. He rushed one time for two yards in one appearance for the Giants. Jackson will look for yet another team to give him a shot.
