Donte Jackson News
The Pittsburgh Steelers acquired cornerback Donte Jackson and pick No. 178 in this year's NFL draft on Tuesday from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for wide receiver Diontae Johnson and pick No. 240 overall in this year's draft, according to sources. If the Panthers hadn't traded the 28-year-old Jackson, he was likely going to be a salary cap casualty this offseason. The former second-round selection by Carolina in 2018 out of LSU will give the Steelers an experienced corner that should start across from second-year corner Joey Porter. Jackson has 14 career interceptions in six NFL seasons, but he had none in 2023 while also adding 59 tackles (49 solo), five tackles for loss, five passes defended and a forced fumble in 16 starts. Fantasy managers can ignore him in IDP leagues.
The Carolina Panthers are expected to trade or release veteran cornerback Donte Jackson, according to sources. Jackson has a $4 million roster bonus due on March 16, which would spur action. His release would save the team $5.9 million in the 2024 salary cap. The 28-year-old former second-round pick by Carolina in 2018 out of LSU has accumulated 303 tackles (248 solo), one sack, 15 tackles for loss, 14 interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), 46 passes defensed, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery in his six years with the Panthers. In what will be his final season with the team, Jackson contributed 59 tackles (49 solo), five tackles for loss and a forced fumble in 16 games in 2023.
Carolina Panthers cornerback Donte Jackson (shoulder) exited Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. He was listed as questionable but did not return. The 27-year-old logged one tackle prior to departing and was replaced by D'Shawn Jamison.
