Panthers' Michael Jackson: Impressive 2024 campaign
Mike Jackson tallied 76 total tackles and 17 passes defended, including two interceptions, over 17 games in 2024.Jackson was a late addition to the Carolina Panthers' first-team defense but emerged as one of the team's most consistent players throughout the year. The 27-year-old set career highs in total tackles, passes defended and interceptions during his first season with the Panthers, playing the most defensive snaps of his career (1,140). Jackson signed a one-year, $1.2 million deal with the Seahawks last spring before being traded to Carolina in late August, making him an unrestricted free agent this offseason. He could re-sign with the Panthers after starting all 17 games this season, but he's also likely to draw significant interest from contending teams in need of secondary help following his strong 2024 campaign.

Seahawks' Mike Jackson: Agrees to contract restructure
Mike Jackson restructured his contract with the Seattle Seahawks on Monday to clear roughly $1.89 million in cap space, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.Jackson signed a restricted free agent tender with Seattle to re-up with the team in early April, but he now has a league-minimum base salary of $1.055 million in exchange for a new signing bonus of $167,500. A 2019 fifth-rounder, Jackson played a depth role at cornerback and contributed regularly on special teams across 17 games last season.

Seahawks' Mike Jackson: Role diminishes in 2023
Mike Jackson posted 34 tackles (28 solo) and five pass breakups across 17 games during the 2023 regular season.Jackson was a full-time starter during the 2022 season and racked up 75 tackles, 12 pass breakups and an interception. But things dropped off for the cornerback in 2023 with the addition of first-round pick Devon Witherspoon, as Jackson ended up starting just four games. He still put forth a solid tackle count. Jackson will be a restricted free agent in March, so there's a decent chance he's still in Seattle next year.
