Evan Jackson brings proven playmaking as a ball-hawking safety with strong production
Evan Jackson has shown real impact in the secondary, with 2025 North Texas stats of 28 solo tackles, 2 interceptions, and 2 pass breakups, and his profile points to a defender who can diagnose quickly and close on the ball.[6] Florida lists him as a redshirt sophomore inside linebacker on its 2026 spring roster, which suggests added versatility and a possible position transition rather than a finished product.[1] For a team, that makes him interesting as a physical, adaptable defensive piece with upside, especially if you value instincts, turnover potential, and special-teams or hybrid usage over pure size.[1][6]
