The Browns waived Jackson (illness) on Tuesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson had been dealing with an illness that did not appear to be COVID-19-related for the past three weeks. While his release isn't directly related to his illness, the missed time certainly didn't help his case to make the roster. If he clears waivers it is possible that the Browns elect to sign him to their practice squad.

Jackson didn't practice Tuesday due to an illness, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson's illness doesn't appear to be related to COVID-19, but he was still forced to miss at least one day of practice. When the 27-year-old returns to full health, he should serve as depth in Cleveland's secondary this season.

The Browns re-signed Jackson (hamstring) on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson was waived by the Browns earlier this month after having appeared in 10 regular-season games in 2020, before a hamstring issue caused him to hit IR. Now presumably back to full health, Jackson will return to Cleveland as a quality depth option. He's also proficient on special teams.

The Browns waived Jackson (hamstring) on Thursday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson appeared in 10 regular-season games with the Browns in 2020 before landing on IR due to a hamstring injury in the playoffs. During that span Jackson notched six tackles and one pass breakup, and he also got his first career start against the Steelers in Week 17. Once back to full health, Jackson will look to earn a depth roster spot elsewhere in the league.

Jackson (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Jackson was simply day-to-day, but now he'll be unavailable until the Super Bowl. The second-year cornerback out of UNLV made his first career start in the wild-card win over the Steelers, but he was simply going to be depth for the rest of playoffs as long as Denzel Ward and Kevin Johnson returned from the reserve/COVID-19 list as planned.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Jackson (hamstring) is considered day-to-day, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson made his first career start in Sunday's wild-card win over the Steelers, but he exited after 77 snaps. It appears the injury is minor, although he'll be closely monitored through the practice week. Even if he's able to shake the injury, both Denzel Ward and Kevin Johnson have a good chance to return from the reserve/COVID-19 list for Sunday's AFC divisional-round matchup against the Chiefs.

Jackson will make his first career start Sunday against Pittsburgh, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson has seen almost all his reps this season on special teams, but he'll ultimately be the next man up with Denzel Ward on the COVID list. He's only seen six snaps on defense this year, but he and opposite-side corner Terrance Mitchell will be the first line of defense against Mason Rudolph and the Pittsburgh passing attack.

The Browns promoted Jackson from their practice squad Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The UNLV product joined the 53-man roster just in time to make an appearance in Thursday night's game against the Bengals. Jackson will add depth in the secondary for the club, as he's supplied four solo tackles across seven appearances for the Browns the past two seasons.

Jackson (finger) wasn't listed on Monday's injury report, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson exited this past Sunday's loss to the Ravens due to a finger injury, but he'll be ready to go for Week 2's matchup versus the Bengals on Thursday. Before exiting the season opener, Jackson played strictly on special teams.

Jackson suffered a finger injury and was considered questionable to return in Week 1 against the Ravens, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

The nature and severity of the injury are currently unknown. With the team facing a quick turnaround for a Week 2 matchup against the Bengals on Thursday, it's unclear when Jackson may be able to return to game action.
