Panthers acquire CB Michael Jackson from Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson (14) makes a catch against Seattle Seahawks cornerback Michael Jackson (30) during the fourth quarter at State Farm Stadium in Glendale on Jan. 7, 2024. The Carolina Panthers acquired cornerback Michael Jackson from the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday for rookie linebacker Michael Barrett.
Jackson, 27, appeared in all 34 games for Seattle over the past two seasons, starting 21 of them.
He has 112 tackles, 19 passes defensed and one interception in 38 games (21 starts) with the Detroit Lions (2019), New England Patriots (2020) and Seahawks. He originally was drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round in 2019.
The Panthers needed depth at cornerback after recent injuries to starter Dane Jackson (hamstring) and backup Lamar Jackson (knee).
Barrett, 24, was a seventh-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft out of Michigan. He recorded 65 tackles, three sacks and three forced fumbles in 15 games for the national champion Wolverines in 2023.
