Jackson played high school football at Central Dauphin East (PA), where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 670 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/rankings/industry-player/basketball/2021/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">On3 Industry Ranking</a>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-another-former-nebraska-dl-committed-on-tuesday">Another former Nebraska DL committed on Tuesday</h2>



Nebraska transfer edge rusher <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/james-williams-236475/">James Williams</a> has committed to <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/florida-state-seminoles/">Florida State</a>, <a href="https://x.com/Hayesfawcett3/status/1869148058564571420">according to</a> On3’s Hayes Fawcett. He has at least one year of eligibility remaining.



Williams played 16 games at Nebraska. He had 18 tackles and seven sacks in those games.



Williams was unrated as a high school prospect in the 2022 signing class, playing at <a href="https://www.on3.com/high-school/park-hill-kansas-city-mo-8627/">Park Hill (Mo.) High School</a>. He played a season of JUCO football before ending up with the Cornhuskers for the 2023 and 2024 seasons.



Williams joins a Florida State program that is now re-shuffling the deck after a disappointing 2024 campaign, which should mean plenty of opportunity. He’s also following defensive coordinator <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/tony-white-131936/">Tony White</a> from Nebraska to Tallahassee, where White is now the DC for the Seminoles.
