Khyree Jackson, a former Oregon Ducks cornerback, was selected in the fourth round of the NFL draft by the Minnesota Vikings with the No. 108 pick.
Jackson played his senior season with the Ducks after transferring a couple of times earlier in his career.
Jackson wasn’t highly sought coming out of high school, and he started his college football career with Fort Scott Community College, where he played two seasons. After his sophomore year, Jackson was rated the No. 1 junior college CB by 247Sports. He transferred to Alabama, where he played two more seasons, before transferring to Oregon for his final year of eligibility.
Coming to Eugene proved a good decision for Jackson. The best season of his career came as a Duck. In 2023, Jackson played in 12 games, taking 520 defensive snaps, making 48 tackles, catching three interceptions and breaking up eight passes on his way to an All-Pac-12 first-team selection.
