Jackson, 29, played for the New York Giants from 2021 through 2024, starting 41 games. Prior to joining the Giants, Jackson played for the Tennessee Titans, who selected the CB 18th overall in the 2017 NFL Draft.
The Birds were in the market for a corner after letting both Darius Slay and Isaiah Rodgers depart this offseason. The team’s secondary remains strong because of the emergence of young players like Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean, but Jackson adds a veteran presence to next year’s group. He may even compete for a starting role.
I like the signing of Adoree’ Jackson
Brings a veteran presence in the DB room who actually played solid in 2024, given his limited snaps.

The full terms of Jackson’s contract with the Eagles were not immediately made available, but the one-year deal he signed with New York in 2024 paid him $1.75 million.
