Bleacher Report has named Minnesota Vikings safety Theo Jackson as their most tradeable player. This comes after the Vikings selected safety Jakobe Thomas in the third round of the recent draft, signaling Jackson's potential exit. Jackson contributed with 47 tackles and two sacks in 14 games last season, but struggled in coverage, allowing a high passer rating when targeted. Given his performance and increasing competition, Minnesota may look to trade Jackson, possibly to the Washington Commanders, who need safety depth. Estimated trade value for Jackson could be a late-round draft pick.
