Jackson was waived by the Patriots on Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Jackson was dealt from the Lions to the Patriots back at the beginning of August for a conditional 2022 draft pick, but he clearly was less than impressive with his new club. The cornerback played in one game last season for the Lions, contributing only on special teams.
The Lions traded Jackson to the Patriots on Sunday.
Earlier Sunday, the Lions announced cuts to whittle down to 80 players, including sending Jackson to waivers. Before the move could become official, though, New England offered a conditional 2022 draft pick to Detroit to obtain his services. The Patriots' cornerback group is robust, but Jackson nonetheless will get a shot to make the regular-season roster.
Jackson signed a contract with the Lions on Wednesday, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Jackson was drafted during the fifth round by the Cowboys in April but failed to make the season-opening roster and has since been on the team's practice squad. The 22-year-old should provide secondary depth for the Lions with Tracy Walker (knee), Darius Slay (hamstring) and Amani Oruwariye (knee) dealing with injuries.
The Cowboys selected Jackson in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft, 158th overall.
Jackson, a cornerback out of Miami (FL), broke out as a junior with four picks and nine pass breakups in 2017 to earn Second-Team All-ACC honors. He didn't record any interceptions as a senior but still started all 13 games for the Hurricanes. Jackson is a press corner with good speed (4.45) and decent length (32 1/2-inch arms) to grapple with receivers. His selection could be a sign of some dissatisfaction with Jourdan Lewis.
