We will preview every player on the Cardinals roster leading up to training camp. This is about WR Trishton Jackson.
The Arizona Cardinals report to training camp on July 22 and begin the process of preparing for the regular season, forming the roster and determining starting jobs and roles on the team.
Leading up to the start of camp, we will take a look at every player on the offseason roster, their background, their contract, their play in 2024, questions they face and their roster outlook.
This focuses on receiver Trishton Jackson.
Trishton Jackson background, 2024 season
Jackson has been in the NFL since 2020 when he signed with the Los Angeles Rams as a rookie free agent out of Syracuse. After a year on the practice squad of the Rams, he spent the last four years with the Minnesota Vikings, mostly on the practice squad. He finally got some NFL action beginning in 2023. Over the last two seasons, he had played in nine games with two career receptions for nine yards on 90 offensive snaps, also playing 16 on special teams.
In 2024, he appeared in two games without a catch. He played 10 offensive snaps and two on special teams.
Trishton Jackson 2025 contract details, cap hit
Jackson signed a futures deal with the Cardinals in January. It was for the 2025 season. He will make $1.1 million in salary if he makes the roster, and that will be his cap hit.
Questions he faces, roster outlook
Now 27 years old with nine career appearances, how many more chances will Jackson get? Is there something he can show Cardinals coaches that he wasn’t able to do in Minnesota?
As things stand with the receiver room, Jackson might be the most unlikely receiver on the roster to make the 53-man roster, so he will battle for the practice squad, if possible.
