One of the most slippery and elusive offensive players in the region when he has the ball in his hands. It would be hard to find someone who gets more yards after the catch than he does. He will be a solid wide receiver and likely slot man who will catch the short passes in traffic and turn them into long gains. He also excels at running counters and reverses. He has the potential to also be a fine return man at the next level. Bob Lichtenfels

Jackson: “I play a lot on the inside. I’m shifty and very quick off the line. I get open easily and I’m tough to tackle in the open field.

“I still want to get stronger and be more physical. I’d also like to be a better blocker.

“Track really helps my speed and I’d do it if I can, but I’m really only planning on focusing on football in college.”
