a rugged, run-first tight end fit for physical football
Jermaine Jackson’s Oregon State profile reads like a classic throwback TE: in his 2001 season, he was praised as a solid blocker who could also threaten defenses as an above-average receiver, with 4 catches for 60 yards on the year. He entered camp with strong work habits and power-room pop, and his value is in the dirty work—edge sealing, inline blocking, and doing the unglamorous stuff that helps an offense stay on schedule. If you want a tight end who brings toughness and reliability, he’s a fit; if you need a pure seam-burner, this isn’t that guy.
