Jackson was a three-time Pro Bowler and was selected as a member of both organizations. He also had three 1,000-yard receiving seasons with each team.
The longtime wide receiver was found dead in a Florida hotel room on Monday. No cause of death has been determined, but there was no sign of foul play. Jackson was only 38 years old.
