The Saints waived Jackson on Saturday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Jackson appeared in four regular-season games for the Saints since being signed from the practice squad to the active roster Oct. 17, logging 187 kickoff return yards and 68 punt return yards over that span.

Saints' Jermaine Jackson: Reverts to IR
Jackson (undisclosed) reverted to the Saints' injured reserve Sunday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Jackson will now be forced to sit out the entirety of the 2024 campaign while on IR with an undisclosed injury unless he and the Saints reach an injury settlement. The wide receiver was geared up to operate in a significant special-teams role with New Orleans this year, and in his absence, Cedrick Wilson could see an uptick in usage.

Jermaine Jackson: Gets let go
Jackson was waived/injured by the Saints on Saturday with an undisclosed injury, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Jackson signed with New Orleans as an undrafted free agent in April. It is unclear what specific injury led to this transaction. If he ultimately goes unclaimed while on waivers, the pass catcher would revert to the Saints' injured reserve. From there, his season would be over unless both parties can come to an injury settlement down the line.
