The Green Bay Packers are signing free-agent running back Darius Jackson to their 53-man roster on Monday. Jackson was cut by the Cowboys. Jackson will serve as depth behind Jamaal Williams and Ty Montgomery to open the season with Aaron Jones suspended. He can be ignored in fantasy.
Dallas Cowboys running back Darius Jackson showed up on Saturday, playing well by running the ball six times for 42 yards and catching four balls for 22 yards. Jackson was originally drafted by the Cowboys in 2016, but ended up getting cut and spending time with the Cleveland Browns. He's fighting for a spot behind starter Ezekiel Elliott and backup Rod Smith.
