Texas A&M and head coach Jimbo Fisher only recognize production on the field while they continue to dive into the transfer portal for talent, putting aside a player’s former team and level of play. In need of wide receiver depth outside of their starting rotation going into next season, the Aggies recently offered Division II wide receiver JaQuae Jackson out of the California University of Pennsylvania, who entered the portal on March 24.
Jackson, who spent his last five seasons at Cal U, redshirted during the 2018 season and gained an extra year of eligibility after the program’s 2020 Covid-inflicted season was canceled. In 2022, Jackson recorded 77 receptions for 1,178 yards and 13 touchdowns, catching the attention of numerous Power 5 programs other than A&M, including Colorado and first-year head coach Deion Sanders.

Standing at 6-3 and 175lbs, Jackson displays all the tools to excel at the Divison 1 level, possessing notable speed, quickness, and route running ability with a ton of on-field experience that would only add another layer of productivity to an A&M receiving core that is simply in need of more depth and experience.
