One of the nation’s more slept-on EDGE prospects will be leaving school early for the next level.
Coastal Carolina’s Tarron Jackson announced via social media that he has declared for the 2021 NFL draft.
Listed at 6-2, 260 pounds, Jackson has been a matchup nightmare for opposing offensive tackles all year long. Jackson recently wrapped up his 2020 campaign with an impressive 8.5 sacks in 13 games. He rode that success en route to earning Associated Press All-America honors. Jackson has also captured All-America recognition from ESPN. He was also named the Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Year and earned All-Sun Belt first team honors for the second-straight season.
Jackson is Pro Football Focus’ sixth-highest graded EDGE prospect since 2019.
We’ll get to see Jackson against better competition at the 2021 Senior Bowl. A good performance there could land him squarely on the Day 2 radar.
