Jackson wasn’t drafted.But there’s good news, for Jackson and for Schefter. Jackson will sign with the Bills as a free agent — and the guy who tried to hype Jackson has the scoop. (As one of the resident wiseacres at PFT pointed out in our text chain, Jackson signed “faster than expected.” No, it wasn’t Gantt.)Jackson left Buffalo early, with one year of eligibility remaining. It’s fair to wonder whether if he knew then what he knew now he would have stayed in school for another year.In a more fair football world, he’d be allowed to return to college football for another season. But the warped notion of amateurism prohibits a college player from exploring the possibility of playing in the NFL and then returning to college

Singletary demonstrated his ability to contribute in the ground game during Thursday night’s 24-16 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in the preseason opener for both teams. Maybe more importantly, Singletary also showed he can be counted on as a pass-catching threat out of the backfield. On a day when LeSean McCoy got the night off and veteran Frank Gore was limited (rushing twice for seven yards while catching one pass for four yards), it was Singletary who made an instant impact out of the backfield. Singletary rushed a team-high nine times for 27 yards and caught all three of his targets for 21 yards, accounting for 48 all-purpose yards. “I feel like I did pretty good

The line opened up some holes for me, so I just had to make some moves and get what I could get.”After the game, Gore, who appears bound for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, heaped high praise on Singletary after his first NFL action. “He (Singletary) has a great feel for it being so young. Out of all the guys who got drafted since I’ve been playing, he’s the most natural

At one point, Singletary either ran the ball or caught a pass on seven of the first eight plays of the 10-play, 46-yard drive, and finished with 37 total yards on the drive: 16 rushing yards on four carries along with all three of his receptions for 21 yards. Displaying a knack for eluding defenders and creating positive runs in limited space, Singletary showcased his outstanding vision, his decision-making
