The Jets -signed safety Bennett Jackson on Tuesday, according to The Athletic’s Connor Hughes.
Jackson only played in two games for the Jets in 2019 and recorded one tackle in Week 15 against the Ravens. He started the season with Baltimore before being cut at the end of August. The Jets claimed him off waivers before the start of the regular season, but he was cut and re-signed to the practice squad two weeks later.
In October, the Ravens re-signed Jackson to the active roster. By December, the Ravens moved on from him and the Jets picked him up again. New York decided not to give him an exclusive rights free agent tender this offseason, which made him a free agent.
Originally, Jackson was a sixth-round pick by the Giants in 2014 out of Notre Dame.
