Jackson had a tryout with the Giants on Wednesday, Howard Balzer of GoPHNX.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson is looking to latch on with a new team after he was released by Pittsburgh on March 10. The veteran cornerback played with Washington last season but spent much of the campaign on the IR due to a back injury. Jackson spent the first five seasons of his NFL career with the Bengals, though he missed his entire rookie year due to a torn pectoral muscle.

The Steelers released Jackson (back) on Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson was traded by Washington to Pittsburgh during the 2022 campaign, but he didn't make any appearances for the Steelers and ended the season on IR with a back injury. The 2016 first-round pick has appeared in 75 career games and totaled 51 pass defenses and five interceptions, so he should garner some attention as a free agent this summer.

The Steelers designated Jackson (back) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, per the team's official site.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson, who's been on injured reserve with a nagging back issue since Nov. 12, returned to practice Wednesday, ultimately opening the 21-day window for the Steelers to activate him to the active roster. The 30-year-old was acquired by Pittsburgh via a trade with Washington prior to the team's Week 9 bye, but he has yet to make his Steelers' debut.

Pittsburgh placed Jackson (back) on its injured reserve list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

After missing the last three games with a lingering back injury, Jackson will ultimately be forced to miss at least four more games as he recovers. With Ahkello Witherspoon (hamstring) also out for Week 10, James Pierre will once again be in line for increased reps on the boundaries.

Jackson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Although Jackson was able to rest during the Steelers' Week 9 bye after being traded from Washington to Pittsburgh at the beginning of November, he'll be forced to miss a fourth consecutive game due to his back injury. His next chance to make his team debut will be Nov. 20 against the Bengals.

Jackson (back) didn't practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson, who's missed three straight games due to a back injury, was traded by the Commanders to the Steelers during Pittsburgh's Week 9 bye. It's concerning that the cornerback isn't available to practice with his new squad Wednesday, but he'll have two more opportunities to participate before the team needs to make a decision on Jackson's status for Sunday's matchup against New Orleans.

Washington traded Jackson (back) and a 2025 conditional seventh-round pick to Pittsburgh on Tuesday in exchange for a 2025 conditional sixth-round pick, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson missed three straight games due to a back injury and will now join a new team ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. It's unclear if the cornerback will be able to make his Steelers debut against the Saints on Sunday, but when available, he figures to compete for a depth role behind Ahkello Witherspoon and Cameron Sutton.

Jackson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson will miss a third straight game due to a back injury he picked up during Washington's Week 5 loss to Tennessee. In his absence, Rachad Wildgoose figures to continue seeing increased snaps in the Commanders secondary.

Jackson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson continues to deal with a back injury and will be sidelined for a second consecutive game. Rachad Wildgoose should continue to see additional playing time for the Commanders in Week 7.

Jackson (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson was sidelined for the team's Week 6 win over Chicago due to a back injury that he suffered in Week 5. It was presumably an aggravation of the issue that caused him to miss Week 3 as well. Given that it appears to be a reoccurring thing, Washington may elect to keep him out for a second consecutive contest. However, he'll have two more opportunities to return to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Packers.
