Kenyatta Jackson Jr. Scouting Summary

Charles Power

12/09/21

Long, productive pass rusher with NFL pedigree. Uses his long levers and quick hands to disengage from opposing offensive tackles. Closes quickly and finishes with authority behind the line of scrimmage at a high rate. Has the ability to dip and bend around the edge. Makes some high effort plays in pursuit. Owns a stout frame and should continue packing on mass at the college level. Had a big senior season, being named Florida’s Gatorade Player of the Year. The bits of verified athleticism we do have are average for the position.

We view Kenyatta Jackson Jr. as having similar physical traits and position-specific skills to Smith. Both are around 6-foot-5 with considerable length and a frame to add weight. Smith had a 35+ inch arm at the NFL Combine. Jackson measured with an 82-inch wing-span prior to his senior season. Both register as solid, not elite athletes for the position and win with their length, jump off the ball and bend around the edge. Jackson showed his pass rush skill set as a senior at Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna while racking up 18 sacks and leading his team to a state title.
