2024 Fantasy Outlook
Jackson spent the first six years of his career in Carolina but was traded to the Steelers during the offseason as part of the trade that sent Diontae Johnson to the Panthers. Jackson appeared in all but one game last season and logged 59 tackles (49 solo), five pass defenses and a forced fumble. The Steelers parted ways with Patrick Peterson during the offseason, so Jackson should slot in as one of the team's top options at cornerback alongside second-year player Joey Porter in 2024.

RANKS
Snags third INT
Jackson recorded a solo tackle and two pass breakups, including an interception, in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
This was Jackson's third interception of the season, and he sits just one interception shy of the career best he posted as a rookie in 2018. The 2018 second-round pick has just 18 sacks (12 solo) through six games, so his weekly floor remains low.

Michael Pittman got back on track in Week 4 and should keep it rolling in Week 5, as neither the Jags nor Colts have viable coverage personnel.
George Pickens should get going against an Indianapolis defense with questionable boundary personnel
If Patrick Surtain shadows Mike Evans on the boundary then it could create a target funnel to Chris Godwin in the slot.
Mike Evans has to slow down eventually, but probably not against Washington's undersized boundary corners.

A long-time starter at cornerback for the Panthers, Jackson endured an abbreviated 2022 campaign due to a torn Achilles suffered in November. The injury sidelined him after he tallied 35 tackles and two interceptions (one pick-six) in nine games. After restructuring his contract this offseason, Jackson is staying in Carolina in 2023, when new coordinator Ejiro Evero will take charge of the defense. Once he's healthy, Jackson figures to start opposite the team's top CB Jaycee Horn.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Team open to trading him
The Panthers are open to trading Jackson before the Oct. 31 NFL trade deadline, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
ANALYSIS
At 0-6, the Panthers are thinking long-term as 2023 first overall pick Bryce Young develops at quarterback. Jackson, who will turn 28 on Nov. 8, doesn't fit the team's timeline. The veteran cornerback has yet to record an interception in 2023, but he recorded multiple interceptions in each of his previous five NFL seasons, all with the Panthers.
