6-1, 195 pounds.

NFL experience:

He signed with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2023 as an undrafted free agent. He started the season on the practice squad after not making the initial 53-man roster in August. He finished the season on the 53-man roster. He didn’t make the team again in training camp in 2024 and started the season on the practice squad before being released in September. The Raiders signed Jackson to the practice squad in December and was signed a future contract in January. He played in five games wtih the Bengals with no catches. He was mostly a special-teams player.

How he will fit in with Raiders:

Jackson, who turns 26 in October, has looked good this summer. Every year on every team, there is a young wide receiver who stands out. Jackson is doing that with the Raiders and he could potentially sneak onto the 53-man roster or, at least, get a chance to stick around the program on the practice squad.
