Jackson's best season came as a senior in 2023 when he tallied 40 tackles, including 5.5 for a loss, and 2.5 sacks in 12 games, per Sports Reference. Injuries limited his playing time in both the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Most evaluators see the former Wolfpack defender as a potential day-three selection or a priority undrafted free agent.
Jackson (6-2, 290) demonstrated strong proficiency as a run defender last season, earning an impressive 80.6 Pro Football Focus grade in that category.
