Jackson, hailing from Santa Ana, California, and attended high school powerhouse Mater Dei, chose Alabama over Michigan after a practice visit on Thursday.

Here's Jackson at practice and being greeted by Alabama head coach Nick Saban.

Jackson spent two seasons in the Cardinal Red and Gold. As a freshman in 2022, he played a limited role, recording just two tackles and one pass defended in seven games. In 2023, he played a more significant role, recording 33 tackles, three passes defended, zero interceptions, and zero forced fumbles.

Jackson will likely play a massive role in 2024 as Alabama's top corner, Kool-Aid McKinstry, will enter the 2024 NFL Draft, along with their other top corner, Terrion Arnold, by all indications.

The soon-to-be junior has a chance to be the man at Alabama in 2024, and we wish the former Trojan the best in his next journey.
