Safety Kareem Jackson

Kareem Jackson gets an 86 overall.

Jackson was released by the team but then re-signed upon many players’ wishes. He received a 1-year deal. It was ultimately a salary dump without having to officially move on from him.

Jackson is no stranger to contact. He has over 700 tackles throughout his career including 27 tackles for loss. For his tackling, Madden has given him a 72.

His Press Coverage is at a solid 89 overall, while he received a zone coverage rating of 86 and a man coverage rating of 83.

Jackson flies all over the field looking for the ball carrier. He lays huge hits on running backs and ultimately whoever comes in his path. Remember the huge hit he laid on his former team, the Houston Texans? Whew.

That said, his hit power is a tremendous 90 overall.

Jackson is yet another defensive player rated in the top-5 of all Broncos players in Madden 22. Here’s wondering how well he will play in 2021. Will he be able to earn another year with the team or will the Broncos move on from him and start one of their young safeties they’ve recently acquired?

His injury rating is also a 90. Jackson did not miss a game with the Broncos in 2020. Will his age let him down, though? Hopefully not but he is several years on the wrong side of 30.
