Impact The hope was Jackson would fill James Bradberry's shoes as Carolina's top cornerback following the veteran's free-agent departure last offseason. While Jackson responded with two interceptions in his first three games, he was plagued by a toe injury afterward, hurting his performance. Overall, the usually speedy cornerback played just over half of the Panthers' defensive snaps, and although, he still posted a new career high in pass breakups, Jackson also saw his tackle total decline for a second straight year. The mercurial former second-rounder will now enter the final season of his rookie contract in hopes of a healthy and productive 2021 campaign.
