Linebacker Adrian Jackson leaves the Oregon football program

Linebackers will be one of many strengths of the 2022 Oregon Ducks football team. But the depth at that position took a hit today with Adrian Jackson deciding to leave the program.

The four-year junior from Denver was set to be a big part of the outside linebacker rotation after having 16 tackles, 2.5 for loss. For his career, that began in 2018, Jackson acccumilated 33 tackles, 23 solo, and 4.5 for loss and one sack.

Jackson made an impact as a true freshman where he played in 12 games and made two starts. In 2018, he managed to have 13 tackles, including 10 solo and had a tackle in each of the final six games.

But his career was derailed somewhat just before the 2019 year where Jackson suffered a season-ending injury forcing him to redshirt. Then the pandemic hit and the Ducks played just seven games.
