The Buffalo Bills have released Corner Bag Dane Jackson as they work to free up salary cap space ahead of the 2026 NFL season. This move clears $1.2 million in cap room from his minimum roster deal. He's the third defensive back cut by the new leadership team, including first time head coach Joe Brady and defensive coordinator Jim Leighenhard. Jackson had a limited role in his return to the Bills last season, playing in just three regular season games with three tackles total. He also appeared in both playoff games, stepping in as depth. Over five seasons and 55 games with Buffalo across two stints, Jackson racked up 155 tackles, three interceptions, and 28 pass breakups. Fans remember how former coach Sean McDermott developed late-round and undrafted defensive backs like him into key contributors.

1:00That development showed in his first go-around with the team, though his second stint was quieter amid injuries and roster changes. A tough playoff moment came when Denver targeted him for a touchdown pass. The Bills continue reshaping their defense with these cap-friendly decisions, positioning them better for future moves under the new staff.
