On the defensive side of the ball, Jackson is a dynamic edge rusher that can cause plenty of havoc in the opposing offensive backfield. Meanwhile, on the offensive side of the ball, Jackson can be an athletic weapon in the passing game. He is a difficult player to cover from the tight end position and can use his athletic ability to haul in anything thrown in his direction. With over 20 scholarship offers to his credit, he is a prospect to keep an eye on over the next two seasons.   [player_tooltip player_id='950579' first='Jett' last='Surratt']-Quarterback-Carthage-6'2” 170-Pounds-2026   Surratt has put a strong arm on display over the weekend.

He had an impressive weekend, and he has the potential for a strong 2023 football season.   [player_tooltip player_id='265258' first='Aeryn' last='Hampton']-Wide Receiver-Daingerfield-5'10” 175-Pounds-2024   Hampton is one of the most athletic prospects at the wide receiver position in the class of 2024. He does an excellent job of using his athletic ability to high point the football. Hampton is impressive at being able to create separation from opposing defenders. The speed Hampton possesses is eye opening as well. Hampton can stretch the field vertically or be used in the slot to work the underneath routes. Either way, Hampton has the potential for an impressive season in 2023.   [player_tooltip player_id='920599' first='Kiotti' last='Armstrong']-Tight End-Jasper-6'6” 240-Pounds-2025   [player_tooltip player_id='920599' first='Kiotti' last='Armstrong'] is extremely versatile.

He is a tight end that runs good routes. Armstrong's athleticism is going to be a problem for opposing defenders attempting to cover him.
