Impresses vs. Denver
Jackson recorded 10 total tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
The first-year Panther was one of three players with double-digit stops in Sunday's loss, tying Josey Jewell as the team's second-leading tackler behind Demani Richardson's 11-stop effort. Jackson has now recorded 43 total tackles and six passes defended, including one interception, across the Panthers' first eight games this season. He's expected to continue starting opposite Jaycee Horn as part of Carolina's top outside-cornerback duo in Week 9, when the Panthers host the Saints.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
After bouncing around on practice squads for his first three seasons and playing just four NFL games, Jackson found home in Seattle and barely left the field in 2022, recording 75 tackles (63 solo), 12 pass breakups, two fumble recoveries and an interception. He was quite dependable in coverage on the outside opposite rookie Tariq Woolen. He was so reliable outside that the Seahawks utilized No. 5 pick Devon Witherspoon in the slot when they rolled out nickel packages during training camp. That means Jackson should get a fair amount of playing time this season, but if Witherspoon and Woolen are healthy, Jackson is expected to take a back seat.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Taking over starting role?
Coach Pete Carroll said "we'll see" when asked Wednesday whether Jackson and Riq Woolen will continue to compete for the starting right cornerback spot, per Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic, which may indicate that Jackson has pulled away with the job.
ANALYSIS
Jackson played 72 percent of defensive snaps in Monday's 20-17 win over the Eagles, while Woolen was limited to just 28 percent. Woolen has struggled in his sophomore season after a promising rookie year, which has opened the door for Jackson, who made his first start of 2023 against Philadelphia. If the same usage pattern continues Sunday against the Titans, it would be an indicator that Jackson has taken over the starting job at Woolen's expense.
