Cowboys | Dallas parts with Darius Jackson Fri Aug 30, 02:46 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Darius X. Jackson was waived Friday, Aug. 30.
| Footballguys view: Jackson has great measureables, but has bounced on and off of the Dallas and Cleveland rosters. Even with Ezekiel Elliott not reporting, the team couldn't find room for Jackson. |

Cowboys | Darius Jackson leads backfield Sat Jul 27, 09:51 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Darius X. Jackson worked as the primary first-team running back during practice Saturday, July 27.
| Footballguys view: The Cowboys have two rookies and Jackson behind Ezekiel Elliott, and Jackson has the most experience in the organization after the team drafted him in the sixth round in 2016, so this makes sense. He tested out very athletic even by NFL terms but hasn't been able to stick or get playing time in the NFL yet. |

Free-agent RB Darius X. Jackson (Cowboys) was signed by the Green Bay Packers off the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad Monday, Sept. 3. CB Herb Waters was released in a corresponding move.
| Footballguys view: Jackson did have a spot on the Cowboys practice squad but the Packers wanted him on the 53-man roster. They need running back depth behind Jamaal Williams and Ty Montgomery...especially with Aaron Jones suspended the first two games of the regular season. |

Cowboys | Dallas puts eight on practice squad Sun Sep 2, 05:14 PM
Free-agent WR Dres Anderson, T Jake Campos, RB Jordan Chunn, RB Darius X. Jackson, WR Lance Lenoir, Jr., CB Donovan Olumba, LB Kyle Queiro and DE Charles Tapper were signed to the Dallas Cowboys practice squad Sunday, Sept. 2.
| Footballguys view: Lenoir and Anderson are names to file away if only because the Cowboys don't have any entrenched starters on their subpar wide receiver depth chart. |

Cowboys | Three signed by Cowboys Wed May 30, 10:39 AM
Free-agent RB Darius X. Jackson (Browns), WR Mekale McKay (Bears) and DT Antwaun Woods (Titans) were signed to undisclosed deals by the Dallas Cowboys Wednesday, May 30. DT DeQuinton Osborne and OG Jay Robertson were released.
| Footballguys view: Jackson was a sixth-round pick out of Eastern Michigan for the Cowboys back in 2016. He was with the Browns last year but finds himself back in Dallas vying for a spot on the depth chart. Measuring in at 6' 220 pounds, Jackson has elite athleticism and runs with build up power. He's not that instinctive as a runner and needs to stand out on special teams to make the roster. |

Cowboys | Darren McFadden activated from NFI list Tue Dec 13, 04:43 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Darren McFadden (elbow) was activated to the active roster from the Non-Football Injury list Tuesday, Dec. 13. RB Darius Jackson was subsequently released.
| Footballguys view: McFadden is back in action, but his role should be quite small. He's the change-of-pace back behind starter Ezekiel Elliott. If something were to happen to Elliott, the team would likely use a RBBC featuring Alfred Morris and McFadden. |
