Jackson found himself behind veterans DeMarvin Leal and Jayden Peevy last year; this year, he's the veteran. Even though the Aggies have assembled a remarkably talented group at defensive tackle, Jackson is the most experienced and proven player of the group. As a result, he'll be expected to lead the way up front this season.
