“Chargers sign former Baltimore Ravens safety”.

Former Baltimore Ravens safety Eddie Jackson moves from one Harbaugh brother to another.

The Los Angeles Chargers signed Jackson to their practice squad on Monday and released former Ravens running back John Kelly in a corresponding move. Kelly spent the preseason with Baltimore before being released before the start of the regular season.

Jackson was released by the Ravens on November 23rd.

Jackson, 31, appeared in nine games and started four for the Ravens. In those nine games, he collected 30 tackles, 1 pass deflected and 1 quarterback hit. Before signing with Baltimore last offseason, Jackson played for the Chicago Bears, was a two-time Pro Bowler and first-team All-Pro in 2018.

Jackson’s biggest struggles came in pass defense, as Pro Football Reference credited the veteran safety with allowing 15 catches for 243 yards and three touchdowns. His worst performance came on October 27, when he allowed seven catches for 95 yards and two touchdowns in the Ravens’ 29-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns.

After the loss to Cleveland, Jackson was a good player twice, playing just 16 snaps in the Ravens’ 35-34 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on November 7.
