Baltimore Ravens Sign NFL First-Team All-Pro

The Baltimore Ravens have made a big move to improve their secondary ahead of the 2024 NFL regular season. The team has announced they have signed former Chicago Bears safety Eddie Jackson. This will be Jackson’s first opportunity since being released by the Bears on February 15th.

Eddie Jackson Brings Experience And Leadership To Ravens Secondary

Eddie Jackson has a remarkable resume at only 30 years old. Before his NFL career began, he was a CFP National Champion with Alabama in 2015 and was named Defensive MVP of the game after recording an interception.

Despite being a fourth-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Jackson played seven seasons with the Chicago Bears. Named a starting safety in his rookie season, he quickly became a fan favorite after recording two defensive touchdowns in one game against the Carolina Panthers. He was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week.

The 2018 season was the best year for Jackson as he led a secondary that was one of the top units in the NFL. He recorded three defensive touchdowns and six interceptions in 14 games. His 93.2 PFF grade was the highest in the NFL at his position. He was named to the Pro Bowl and First-team All-Pro for his accomplishments.

While Jackson isn’t the top safety he was a few years ago, he is still a good player in the NFL. He had four interceptions in 2022 and was on track to be named to the Pro Bowl for the third time. He also had one pick in 2023. He was ranked 96th on the 100 Greatest Chicago Bears of All Time list published in 2019.

With an already strong safety group, the Ravens don't need Jackson to be a superstar like he once was. He provides Baltimore with an experienced and talented backup who the team can feel comfortable starting if Marcus Williams or Kyle Hamilton go down. This is a really good signing for the Baltimore Ravens.
