Adoree Jackson is one of the best defensive backs in the country, but he’s no certainty to leave USC for the NFL Draft.
The junior cornerback, who is so athletic he also plays on special teams or offense at times, says that he still has things in college he wants to accomplish.

Jackson is a finalist for the Thorpe Award, which is awarded to the best DB in the country. Keep in mind that he is also a long jumper for USC’s track and field team, which could also play a role in his desire to return to school.
Jackson has 49 tackles and four interceptions this season. Many scouts project him as a potential first or second-round pick.
