The Chargers signed Jackson to their practice squad Monday.
Jackson began the season in Baltimore and played in nine games before he was waived Nov. 23. During his time with the Ravens, the veteran safety tallied 30 tackles (18 solo) and one defensed pass, but his tenure ended abruptly, as he was a healthy scratch Week 9, returned and played just 14 defensive snaps Week 10, then missed Week 11 for personal reasons before being let go. Jackson's presence could be needed in Los Angeles before the end of the regular season with both Alohi Gilman (hamstring) and Marcus Maye (ankle) on injured reserve.
Jackson was a healthy scratch for Week 9 against the Broncos, and after playing in Week 10, he was ruled out for Week 11 against the Steelers due to personal reasons. The eighth-year safety out of Alabama has posted 30 tackles (18 solo) and one pass defense over nine regular-season games. Should he clear waivers, Jackson will look to catch on with a team in need of veteran depth in the secondary.
Jackson (personal) will not travel with the Ravens to Pittsburgh and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
It's been a bumpy last couple of weeks for Jackson, who was a healthy scratch in Week 9 against the Broncos after playing all 66 defensive snaps in Week 8 against the Browns, during which he logged a season-high 10 tackles (eight solo) and one pass defense. He returned for Week 10 against the Bengals, though he played just 14 snaps on defense and did not record a tackle. Jackson's next chance to suit up will be Week 11 against the Chargers on Monday, Nov. 25. Ar'Darius Washington will serve as the Ravens' primary backup at safety behind starters Kyle Hamilton and Marcus Williams.
