He started all 16 games during his rookie year, recording 17 pass deflections, and three forced fumbles, but zero interceptions. Jackson also contributed as a kick returner and punt returner but failed to record any touchdowns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In his second season, Jackson played in all 16 games and recorded his first career interception in a win against the\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/texans\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Houston Texans<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. Jackson finished the season with 73 total tackles, 10 pass deflections, and two interceptions. His role was reduced as a kick and punt returner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">His third year was a bit unproductive, only playing in 11 games, and recording 45 total tackles and no interceptions. During the playoffs however, Jackson started three games as the Titans reached the AFC Championship Game and recorded five pass deflections, and nine combined tackles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Jackson&#8217;s fifth-year option was exercised by the Titans before his fourth season with the team. Jackson unfortunately suffered a knee injury in practice prior to the regular season and was placed on injured reserve. He made his season debut during week 14 and played a total of three games. Jackson was released by the Titans the following off-season despite picking up his fifth-year option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Shortly after his release, <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.spotrac.com\/nfl\/new-york-giants\/adoree-jackson-21759\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jackson signed a three-year, 39-million-dollar contract<\/a> with the New York Giants. Jackson has not started a full season during his tenure with the Giants. Despite some injuries, Jackson played like a shutdown cornerback in his first two seasons allowing 751 combined yards. In his third season with the Giants, he recorded his first career pick-six, when he intercepted Jalen Hurts for a 76-yard touchdown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo: Chris Pedota &#8211; USA Today Sports<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Longtime NFL Cornerback Adoree Jackson Has Signed A New Contract.
