Falcons Cut Two Edge Rushers

Ivey was on the 53-man roster and Jackson was on the practice squad. 

Jackson, 25, was a second-round pick by the 49ers in the 2022 NFL Draft. He was a three-year starter at USC and a second-team All-PAC 12 selection as a junior. 

Jackson was entering the final year of his four-year $5,892,392 contract when he was waived in May. He signed to Washington’s active roster in October 2025 and signed a one-year extension this offseason before being waived from injured reserve coming out of the preseason. 

The Falcons later signed Jackson to their practice squad. 

In 2025, Jackson appeared in three games for the 49ers and recorded three tackles.
