The Las Vegas Raiders have made a new addition to their roster via waivers on Wednesday.
According to the transactions wire, the Raiders have successfully claimed former Los Angeles Rams edge rusher Brennan Jackson.
A 2024 fifth-round pick of the Rams, Jackson made a name for himself during the 2025 preseason with three sacks, which was tied for the second-most in the NFL behind only the Chicago Bears' Austin Booker.
Here's some more information on Jackson via Tristen Kuhn of Silver & Black Pride:
"6’4/265 posted 5 pressures and 3 sacks during preseason. 16.7% win rate. Las Vegas did not claim anyone else. Lot of raw upside with Jackson, has good lateral movement skills and twitch with burst off the LOS. Has to add strength but LV has a good track record of developing DL talent," Kuhn wrote.
Jackson appeared in seven games (one start) for the Rams last season and tallied three combined tackles and one pass defensed. He played just 47 snaps on defense and 56 on special teams.
The Washington State product will offer some depth at the outside linebacker spot and someone who can help out on special teams. The Raiders have yet to make a corresponding move.
