Expert Analysis
Matt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
One of the top running backs in Atlanta regardless of class, Jackson is a big-play back with a solid 5-foot-11 195-pound frame with a shifty style of running. He can make defenders miss with the ability to bounce off tackles as well. He’s strong, agile, and can score from deep ends of the field. This promising runner took off for 729 yards and 9 touchdowns last year with a 9.2 yards per carry average. He’s now ranked as the No. 115 overall prospect in Georgia for the 2027 class.

Another sleeper back in Atlanta who deserves more recognition, Jackson is a back with excellent speed for his size at 5-foot-11 195-pounds who does a great job of keeping the pile moving. When he’s not flying past defenders for giant gains down the field, Jackson is lowering his shoulder and picking up impressive yards after initial contact. Jackson took off for 729 yards and 9 touchdowns last year on just 79 carries for an eye-opening 9.2 yards per carry. He also added one more touchdown as a receiver. He showed easy D1-caliber talent last year and should see offers come his way down the road with another giant season next fall.
