How He Fits
Jackson might be better classified as an athlete rather than just a straight up safety at this point. He’s very wiry, but he has solid athleticism and good hands. He’s used as a receiver at Overton as well, and it shows off with his vision and ability to track a ball and pick it off as a safety. Jackson is a bit of a project, but he has upside.
