Jackson was released by the Texans on Monday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.
Jackson signed with the Texans on Aug. 10 and had five carries for 37 yards and a touchdown during the second preseason game against the Packers, but he apparently didn't show enough to warrant a longer look. The 27-year-old hasn't played in an NFL game since 2018 and spent most of 2020 on the Colts' practice squad.
