2026 Projections
Signed a three-year, $9.32 million contract with the Vikings in March of 2025.
In and out of starting role in 2025
Jackson played 14 games (eight starts) in 2025, logging 47 tackles (including 2.0 sacks), one defensed pass, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
ANALYSIS
Jackson didn't make any starts over 43 regular-season games across his first three NFL campaigns, but he started in each of Minnesota's first six contests last season. The Tennessee product saw a lessened role thereafter but still worked as a rotational defensive back most weeks and made two additional starts. Jackson tallied the first two sacks of his NFL career and posted a career-high 47 total tackles, though the midseason demotion doesn't bode well for his opportunities moving forward. Still, he's signed for another two years, so Jackson should play at least a rotational role for the Vikings again in 2026.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In line for larger role
Alec Lewis of The Athletic believes Jackson is poised to step into a larger role in 2025 after Camryn Bynum signed with the Colts as a free agent.
ANALYSIS
Jackson signed a two-year, $12.6 million extension to remain in Minnesota after posting 17 tackles and defending three passes in the 2024 regular season. Lewis believes Jackson could earn a starting role in 2025, presumably working alongside veteran Harrison Smith while the versatile Josh Metellus shifts more to cornerback or linebacker rather than safety.
