They've released wide receiver Curtis Samuel, Safety Taylor Rap, Cornerback Terran Johnson, and now veteran Cornerback Dane Jackson, a 2020. Seventh-round draft pick. Jackson briefly left for the Carolina Panthers in 2024 before returning to Buffalo in 2025. He suited up for three regular season games, spent most of the year on the practice squad, and logged just one snap in the playoffs. That playoff snap came in the AFC divisional round against the Denver Broncos. Filling in for Trey Davies White, Jackson gave up a 26-yard touchdown to Marvin Mims, handing Denver the lead, late in the fourth quarter. The release gives the Bills $1.2 million in cap relief, offset by only $95,000 in dead money from his veteran. Minimum deal. It signals he may not have meshed with defensive coordinator Jim Leighenhardt Scheme.
