‘After the defense forced a three-and-out, Jackson and the offense took over with just one minute left, down by three and no timeouts to work with. Jackson and the offense promptly marched down the field, while also aided by a roughing the passer penalty. At the Minnesota 6-yard line and the clock running down under ten seconds, Jackson connected with Sills in order to put the Bills up with eight seconds left, 27-23. Siran Neal intercepted the Vikings final pass to secure the victory and give the Bills their first 4-0 preseason in team history.’

In his first three games he was 8-of-24 for 140 yards. Adding in Thursday’s results he ended the preseason 30-of-55 for 315 yards with one touchdown and one interception. Jackson had 25 rushing attempts for 110 yards and a score.’
