Ready to be signed
Jackson has been cleared from his knee injury and has visits scheduled with the Commanders, Jets and Ravens next week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson missed half of the 2023 season and all of the 2024 campaign with a serious knee injury, but it now appears he could be ready to get back on the field for a willing suitor. He's appeared in just 23 games since being selected in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the 49ers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Year 3 breakout candidate
Jackson could break out with a larger role in his third NFL season on San Francisco's revamped defensive front, according to Bradley Locker of Pro Football Focus.
ANALYSIS
The 49ers parted ways with Arik Armstead, Chase Young, Javon Kinlaw and Clelin Ferrell in the offseason, and while the team brought in veteran Leonard Floyd, there should still be more opportunities left over for Jackson to take on a larger role. With Nick Bosa drawing consistent double teams, Jackson could thrive as a pass rusher in one-on-one matchups. Jackson had 3.0 sacks and 14 pressures in 2023 but didn't play after Week 8 due to a knee injury.
