The San Francisco 49ers have announced the signing of defensive lineman Tarron Jackson to their practice squad. The move comes just ahead of the team's regular-season finale against the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium.
The 49ers Communications staff provided the following rundown.
Jackson (6-2, 254) was originally drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the sixth round (191st overall) of the 2021 NFL Draft. Throughout his four-year NFL career with the Eagles (2021-23) and Carolina Panthers (2024), Jackson has appeared in 24 games and registered 17 tackles, 1.0 sack, and one forced fumble. In 2024, Jackson appeared in three games with the Panthers prior to being waived from the team on October 15. Jackson signed to the Eagles practice squad on November 7 and was released by the team on December 31.
A 26-year-old native of Aiken, SC, Jackson attended Coastal Carolina University (2016-20), where he appeared in 48 games and registered 195 tackles, 26.5 sacks, six forced fumbles, three passes defensed and one fumble recovery. He earned AP First-Team All-America honors as a senior in 2020.
