The Vikings signed Jackson to the practice squad Wednesday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports. Jackson spent most of 2023 on the Vikings' practice squad, though he did appear in three regular-season games and played 35 snaps (three on offense, 32 on special teams). He had a solid finish to the preseason with four catches (on six targets) for 53 yards against the Eagles on Saturday, but it wasn't enough for him to make the Vikings' 53-man roster. Jackson will look to impress on the taxi squad and stay ready for a promotion to the active roster.

Minnesota waived Jackson on Tuesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Jackson signed with Minnesota at the end of the 2023 season, but on the day of the roster cut deadline for 2024, he found himself back on the outside looking in. He's slated to become a free agent unless he's claimed by another team during the current waiver period.
