Antwan Jackson, a standout four-star edge rusher from White Station High School in Memphis, Tennessee, is gearing up for another visit to Tuscaloosa this month. The 2027 recruit, who previously visited the Crimson Tide in January, is drawing significant interest from multiple SEC powerhouses, with Alabama firmly in the mix.
The competition is heating up, with schools like Ole Miss, Missouri, and Tennessee also vying for Jackson's commitment. However, Alabama seems to be making a strong impression. Jackson is set to return to the Tide’s campus later this month, continuing his engagement with the coaching staff, and he’s already lined up for an official visit in May.
Reflecting on his interactions with Alabama, Jackson shared that the program has made him feel like a top priority. “Their message was that I was a top priority to them and how they’ll develop and utilize me as a player,” he noted after his visit in June.
Standing at an imposing 6-foot-6 and weighing 245 pounds, Jackson wrapped up the 2025 season with impressive stats: 5.5 sacks, 13 tackles for loss, and seven quarterback hurries. His versatility is further highlighted by his 216 receiving yards as a tight end. Alabama envisions him as a key player for the wolf linebacker position, a role that capitalizes on his dynamic skill set.
As Jackson prepares for his upcoming visit, it's clear that his recruitment is one to watch closely. His decision will undoubtedly have a significant impact on whichever program he chooses to join. Check out his highlights to see why he’s one of the most sought-after recruits in the 2027 class.
