Answer 1

I added a Jersey Application class and registered the filter in the class, which solved my problem. Also upgraded my jersey version to 2.x from 1.x

public class MyApplication extends ResourceConfig {

    /**
     * Register JAX-RS application components.
     */
    public MyApplication () {
        register(RequestContextFilter.class);
        register(JacksonFeature.class);
        register(CustomerResource.class);
        register(Initializer.class);
        register(JerseyResource.class);
        register(SpringSingletonResource.class);
        register(SpringRequestResource.class);
        register(CustomExceptionMapper.class);
    }
}
