Brown freshman Jackson Skinner arrives as a rangy, high-upside linebacker
Jackson Skinner is a 2026 freshman linebacker at Brown, listed at 6-foot-3, 210 pounds, with a profile that screams length, speed, and upside rather than empty-box score noise. In high school at Marist (Ore.), he was a two-time all-state linebacker, a three-time first-team all-league defender, and an Area Defensive Player of the Year, which points to a playmaker with proven instincts and a competitive edge. The fit looks strong for a program that values smart, versatile defenders who can grow into bigger roles quickly.
