2024 RTSports Outlook
Jackson played with three teams (Colts, Browns and Giants) last season and got in four games. He had 30 total yards, getting little work in a deep reserve role. Jackson is looking to earn a roster spot this year and serve a depth role a running back. Jackson showed some potential in 2022, getting 445 total yards but was unable to build on that last year. His career is at a bit of a crossroads. Jackson is a small back, but catches the ball well and has good moves in space. He is not a great inside runner, though, and lacks the size to be a three-down back.
FANTASY OUTLOOK: Jackson could find a little more playing time this year, but not enough to help fantasy teams.

The New York Giants could look to add a veteran presence to their backfield before the 2024 NFL season, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. "This is a spot that could call for a cheap veteran reinforcement, even if that's just re-signing Matt Breida," Duggan writes. New York's backfield is currently led by Devin Singletary who flashed potential in Houston last season but has never been an every-down back. Below Singletary on the depth chart are rookies Dante Miller and Tyrone Tracy, as well as Eric Gray, Gary Brightwell, Deon Jackson, and Jashaun Corbin, who are most likely non-factors. The Giants' offense consistently gave Saquon Barkley 20-plus touches, but Singletary can't handle that workload on his own. Signing another veteran running back to take some pressure off the 26-year-old makes plenty of sense. For now, though, Singletary remains the only Giants running back worth rostering in redraft leagues.
