According to 247sports composite rankings, Jackson ranks as the number 395 overall player, the number 30 linebacker, and the number nine player in the state of Michigan for the 2024 class.

Jackson picked the Nittany Lions over Wisconsin, Maryland, Cincinnati, and Stanford, among others. After playing his sophomore season at IMG academy in Florida which has become a recruiting pipeline for Penn State Football, Jackson played his junior season back at home in West Bloomfield, Michigan. In his junior season, Jackson totaled 103 tackles, including 26 tackles for a loss and 3 sacks.
