NFL Lifts Broncos S Kareem Jackson’s Suspension

The Broncos received a roster exemption for Jackson, which will give them a short period of time to add him to their active roster.

Jackson has been suspended twice this season and missed a total of six games. 

Jackson, 35, is a former first-round pick of the Texans back in 2010. He played out the final year of his four-year, $34 million contract before agreeing to a three-year, $33 million contract with the Broncos in 2019. 

Denver declined Jackson’s option for the 2021 season but elected to bring him back on a one-year, $5 million deal after he explored his options on the market. He returned on another one-year deal for the 2023 season. 

In 2023, Jackson has appeared in eight games and recorded 51 total tackles, two interceptions and three pass deflections.
