Going to Pittsburgh in trade
The Steelers are set to acquire Jackson from the Panthers in the Diontae Johnson trade, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Jackson was on his way out of Carolina one way or another due to an elevated cap number. In Pittsburgh, he gives the Steelers an experienced corner to pair with 2023 second-rounder Joey Porter. The 55th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, Jackson started 76 games across six seasons for the Panthers, picking off 14 passes.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Team open to trading him
The Panthers are open to trading Jackson before the Oct. 31 NFL trade deadline, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
ANALYSIS
At 0-6, the Panthers are thinking long-term as 2023 first overall pick Bryce Young develops at quarterback. Jackson, who will turn 28 on Nov. 8, doesn't fit the team's timeline. The veteran cornerback has yet to record an interception in 2023, but he recorded multiple interceptions in each of his previous five NFL seasons, all with the Panthers.

A long-time starter at cornerback for the Panthers, Jackson endured an abbreviated 2022 campaign due to a torn Achilles suffered in November. The injury sidelined him after he tallied 35 tackles and two interceptions (one pick-six) in nine games. After restructuring his contract this offseason, Jackson is staying in Carolina in 2023, when new coordinator Ejiro Evero will take charge of the defense. Once he's healthy, Jackson figures to start opposite the team's top CB Jaycee Horn.
