Jackson got praise during full-team red zone work. On the first play, he inserted in motion and got his nose dirty in the run game. On the very next play, he faked like he was doing the exact same thing but leaked out into the flats and was wide open for a 2-yard touchdown grab.

Jackson, a former UFL receiver, had two very impressive reps during 1-on-1 drills against potential starters. He cleanly beat McCreary with an impressive, slippery release for a wide-open touchdown grab, and showed physicality by creating separation on Rock Ya-Sin (though the source notes he may have gotten away with a push-off on that rep).
