Percy Jackson III brings disruptive edge-rush upside to UTRGV
Jackson is a 6-foot-3, 250-pound junior defensive end who gives UTRGV real playmaking juice off the edge, with 2025 production that included 24 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery across 11 games. He stands out for disruptive instincts rather than just sack totals: UTRGV credited him with key backfield impact against multiple opponents, and his 2024 junior-college tape showed a bigger all-around profile with 43 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, and 4.5 sacks. He looks like a good fit for a defense wanting active, high-motor pressure and turnover creation.[1][2][13]
