Jackson was called out by multiple users on social media, some of whom called the move "unbelievable," before he gave an apology Sunday night. He said he meant no disrespect toward Taylor's family but said he was instructed by FedEx Field workers to stand in the sectioned-off area.

"I want to sincerely apologize for accidentally being on the Sean Taylor #21 at FedEx Field. We were directed to stand in that area and I meant absolutely no disrespect to him or his family," Jackson tweeted.

The Washington Football Team (WFT) announced the organization would be retiring Taylor's jersey last week. Taylor died tragically in 2007 while protecting his family during a home invasion. He played for four seasons in the NFL, all of which were with WFT. In addition to the retired number, the team also renamed the road leading to FedEx Field in Taylor's honor. Both ceremonies took place at Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs, with Taylor's family present.

According to Fox 4 Kansas City, Jackson became popular on TikTok for his football game day content. He's been seen making videos with his brother's fiancée Brittany Matthews, as well as Travis Kelce’s girlfriend Kayla Nicole.

The recent TikTok controversy is only Jackson's latest move to draw backlash. He was publicly called out in September after he was caught on video dumping a bottle of water on a Baltimore Ravens fan who was sitting in the row beneath him at Maryland's M&T Bank Stadium. The Ravens fan was reportedly giving Jackson a hard time after the Chiefs fell short to the Ravens 35-36.

His brother opened up about the incident, telling the Kansas City Star that his brother typically has to take a lot of jabs from fans in the stands.

"He takes a lot and he's usually pretty good at it," the quarterback said, adding that "he'll learn from it and just try to stay away from those people as best he can."
