Exclusive rights free agents don't have enough NFL service time to reach the open market despite being on an expired contract unless their current teams elect not to tender them a minium contract.Jackson, 27, has appeared in all 34 games for the Seahawks over the last two seasons. As a full-time starter in 2022, Jackson had 75 tackles with an interception, 12 passes defended, and two fumble recoveries.
