Top Daniel Jackson News

  • Daniel Jackson: Cut by Houston

    The Texans waived Jackson on Tuesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Jackson joined the Texans as an undrafted free agent out of Minnesota earlier this year. He appeared in all three preseason games and produced a 2-16-1 receiving line.

  • Daniel Jackson: On track to join Texans

    Jackson is slated to sign with the Texans as an undrafted free agent, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Jackson was the clear top receiver at Minnesota over his fourth and fifth seasons, combining for 1,694 yards and 12 touchdowns over those two years. He's more of a technician than an explosive athlete, as he measured in at 5-foot-11, 193 pounds and ran a 4.63 40-yard dash at his pro day. Despite the below-average speed, he hauled in 14 catches for 20-plus yards in 2024. He'll aim to earn a depth role in a crowded Texans receiver room.
