Kevin Jackson brings veteran linebacker grit to Sam Houston
Kevin Jackson is a physical, experienced linebacker at Sam Houston whose value is bigger than box-score lines: his game has long been built on tackling reliability, special-teams toughness, and steady assignment discipline. The latest available public roster/news pages identify him as a Bearkats linebacker, but current 2026 game-by-game production isn’t clearly published in the accessible sources, so the real draw is his proven linebacker profile—compact build, veteran feel, and a reputation for contributing where coaches trust him most. If your team wants a downhill, no-drama defender who plays with edge, he’s the kind of piece you notice on Sundays for the right reasons.
