Sun, 15 May 2011 23:35:30 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson, depending upon which set of free-agent rules are in place, could be available to leave on the free-agent market when the NFL lockout comes to an end. Jackson is a decent receiver and excels in blitz pickup, which is why he has become the typical third-down back for the Packers.

Fri, 04 Mar 2011 16:49:22 -0800 The Green Bay Packers did not tender contract offers to impending free agent RB Brandon Jackson, FB Korey Hall, WR James Jones, OL Jason Spitz and SS Atari Bigby, reports Tom Silverstein, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Mon, 06 Dec 2010 10:22:32 -0800 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson only received four carries in Week 13 because the team used their base offense and two-tight end packages and used RB James Starks more in those formations, reports Rob Demovsky, of the Green Bay Press-Gazette. The Packers were expected to use more multiple receiver sets, which Jackson sees most of the snaps.
Mon, 06 Dec 2010 00:10:00 -0800 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson had a reduced role during the team's Week 13 win over the San Francisco 49ers, reports Gary D'Amato, of The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. With rookie RB James Starks carrying the ball 18 times, Jackson had just four carries for 13 yards rushing. He also had four receptions for 63 yards. Starks is a big back at 6-foot-2 and 218 pounds, and he may be more powerful than the 5-foot-10, 216-pound Jackson. "I don't want to get into different styles," Jackson said. "Starks, he did great today."
Tue, 30 Nov 2010 12:35:30 -0800 The Green Bay Packers' running game has continued to struggle and the team used their "Big Five" formation frequently against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12, according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette's Rob Demovsky. The Big Five formation features an empty backfield with five receivers. The running backs, including RBs Brandon Jackson and Dimitri Nance, only had 11 carries in the game. "Our run game, we've been working at it for a long time," offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said. "We haven't changed a whole lot. We need better execution and better production. It's not one person. It's not one position. It's a unit-wide issue. We've got to keep addressing it and keep working on it." The team hasn't had a back average more than 3.8 yards per carry in the last four games. Jackson has carried the ball 12 or fewer times in six of his last 10 games. Head coach Mike McCarthy and Philbin have not committed to giving the running backs more work in the immediate future.
Wed, 17 Nov 2010 06:28:58 -0800 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson said he wants to be able to put up more 100-yard games and make more explosive plays in the second half of the season, reports Lori Nickel, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "I feel like I've been doing good enough to win, but for me personally, I need to do more, to get those 100-yard games. That's what I am looking for now, and more big, explosive plays," Jackson said.
Sun, 07 Nov 2010 22:21:37 -0800 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson found the end zone two times during a Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Jackson had 13 carries for 42 yards and a rushing touchdown, while also chipping in four catches for 26 yards and a receiving touchdown.
Mon, 25 Oct 2010 15:08:17 -0700 Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy praised RB Brandon Jackson's play in Week 7 against the Minnesota Vikings, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Silverstein. "I thought that was Brandon's best game," McCarthy said. "I thought he played a complete football game."
Sun, 10 Oct 2010 16:16:13 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson rushed for a career high 115 yards on 10 carries in the team's Week 5 game against the Washington Redskins, reports The Associated Press.
Mon, 04 Oct 2010 13:36:24 -0700 Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said RBs John Kuhn and Brandon Jackson are interchangeable and neither one is the team's go-to back, according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette's Mike Vandermause.

Tue, 28 Sep 2010 17:35:38 -0700 Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said RBs Brandon Jackson and John Kuhn are good enough to help the Packers reach the goals they have this season, reports The Green Bay Press Gazette. He said rushing attempts isn't the only way for a team to gauge the productivity of their running game.
Wed, 22 Sep 2010 06:41:37 -0700 Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said the team will split the running back snaps between RBs Brandon Jackson, John Kuhn and Dimitri Nance because Jackson is still valuable as the third-down back and he is not sure if Jackson could take the physical toll that comes with being a featured back, ESPNMilwaukee.com's Jason Wilde.
Thu, 16 Sep 2010 17:28:53 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson said he has been preparing to be the team's starting running back for the last three years, reports Greg A. Bedard, of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "I'm ready," Jackson said. Jackson was the starter for the first three games of the 2007 season before a shin injury sidelined him and opened the door for RB Ryan Grant to seize hold of the starter's job and never let go. Head coach Mike McCarthy said the team is going to move on and continue to run their offense the way they typically do. McCarthy noted losing Grant (ankle) hasn't made their job any more difficult, but he believes it is important to use his players to their skill set.
Thu, 16 Sep 2010 09:29:23 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson and RB John Kuhn likely will split timr as the passing down running back the rest of the season, reports Pete Dougherty, of the Green Bay Press-Gazette.

Tue, 14 Sep 2010 09:19:12 -0700 Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin is not worried about the running game despite an injury to RB Ryan Grant (ankle), reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Lori Nickel. "I thought Brandon Jackson ran well," said Philbin. "Broke some tackles. We have some really good clips of him breaking tackles, which is something we have been emphasizing. I don't want to minimize Ryan's contributions. I think our running game was pretty solid. I wish it was a little more consistent." Jackson is the only remaining running back on the roster, though FB John Kuhn, who works with the running backs every day, can also play the position. "They're able to do some things that not your normal running backs could do," said Kuhn of all the fullbacks. "We're used to the playbook and we know what to do on third down. Same with the running backs, too. They have to block as well."
Sun, 12 Sep 2010 20:00:40 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson rushed 18 times for 63 yards and caught two passes for 12 yards while replacing injured RB Ryan Grant (ankle) during the team's Week 1 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 13:45:08 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Kregg Lumpkin received most of the carries with the No. 1 offense during OTAs last month when RBs Ryan Grant and Brandon Jackson received a breather, reports Packers.com's Mike Spofford. Lumpkin is looking to make the 53-man roster out of camp, and running backs coach Edgar Bennett praised Lumpkin's natural running instincts and soft hands as his best qualities. "This kid is talented, and this kid is committed," Bennett said. "We're talking about a guy, to be quite frank, who hasn't missed a day. In the offseason workout program, he hasn't missed a beat. You root for guys like that." Lumpkin needs to stay healthy if he wants to make the roster, but his work on the practice squad last year should give him a leg up over his competition.
Wed, 28 Jul 2010 14:14:21 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Brandon Jackson is likely to serve as the team's third-down running back again this year, unless rookie RB James Starks is able to quickly pick up pass protection, reports Pete Dougherty, of The Green Bay Press-Gazette.
