Joins Bolts' practice squad
The Chargers signed Jackson to their practice squad Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was waived by the Chargers on Tuesday, but he's already back with the team as a member of the practice squad. The 53-man roster for 2025 will likely be thin at wide receiver, so Jackson could be closer to NFL snaps than the average practice squad wideout.

Waived by Los Angeles
Jackson was waived by the Chargers on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson reeled in two catches for 26 yards while appearing in two games with Los Angeles during the preseason. The wide receiver will now be looking for his next opportunity, which could come with the Chargers' practice squad.

Bolts to Los Angeles
The Chargers signed Jackson to a contract Friday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson had a solid chance to make the Patriots' 53-man roster in 2024 before suffering a season-ending, non-contact knee injury during New England's second preseason game last August. He was let go by the Patriots in April, and while he wasn't able to catch on with a team during the offseason, he'll now have the opportunity to audition his talents with the Chargers. He faces an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster, but a strong showing in practices and preseason games could earn Jackson a spot on the practice squad.

Dropped by New England
Jackson (knee) was waived by the Patriots on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson originally signed with the Patriots in June of 2024 but was sidelined for all of last year due to a knee injury. He was dropped without an injury designation Monday, suggesting he's now moved past his knee issue. The Rutgers product has yet to appear in an NFL regular-season game after posting 22 catches for 361 yards and one touchdown across 13 games during his final collegiate season in 2023.

Staying in New England
Jackson (knee) signed with the Patriots on Wednsday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson signed with the Patriots in early June after being cut by the Falcons. The undrafted wide receiver out of Rutgers impressed New England's coaching staff during training camp, but his aspirations of making the 53-man roster were cut short after suffering a non-contact knee injury during the Patriots' second preseason game. Jackson spent the entire season on New England's injured reserve, but the 25-year-old will be brought back into the fold for the 2025 campaign, and he will compete for a spot on the active roster once he's fully healthy.

Going to IR
New England placed Jackson (knee) on its injured reserve list Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jackson sustained a knee injury during Thursday's preseason loss versus the Eagles, and it seems like it may keep him on the sideline for an extended period. Until he's back in action, David Wallis could see an increase in reps at practice.

X-Rays negative, MRI next
New England's head coach Jerod Mayo said X-Rays on Jackson (knee) came back negative, but he'll get an MRI on Friday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson suffered a non-contact knee injury in New England's Thursday preseason game against Philadelphia. The X-Rays coming back negative is a positive for the wide receiver, but the MRI results should provide more insight towards the scope of his knee problem.
Aug 15, 2024
Ruled out Thursday
Jackson (leg) was ruled out for the rest of the Patriots' preseason game against the Eagles on Thursday, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The injury appeared to be non-contact, per Kadlick. Jackson did not catch a pass before exiting. The wide receiver went undrafted in April and is competing for a depth role with New England.

Inks deal with New England

Gets cut loose
Jackson was waived by the Falcons on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS

Links up with Atlanta
Jackson signed a contract with the Falcons on Tuesday.
