The Denver team were keen on re-signing the 35-year-old, but it wasn’t to be. They were hoping he would clear waivers so that the franchise would be able to elevate him to the active roster for the games.

Instead, the 35-year-old is back with the club, where it all started for him back in 2010.

Jackson played cornerback for nine seasons with Houston before moving to safety when he joined the Broncos in free agency in 2019.

“You don’t forget,” Jackson said. “I mean, you haven’t rode a bike in how long? I’m sure you can get on one today and ride it from here to the stadium if you have to.”
