  Perhaps the writing's been on the wall since his breakout season as a true freshman. But USC junior outside linebacker Drake Jackson eliminated any doubt Friday as he declared that the 2021 season will be his last in college before leaving for the NFL. "This is my last year. I got to get out of here," Jackson said after Friday's practice. "I'mma leave with a bang, too." Jackson first arrived at USC in the spring of 2019 out of Corona Centennial High and immediately started to turn heads with a sack and pick six in the spring game while playing defensive end.

That translated into the regular season, with Jackson recording 11.5 tackles for loss, 5.5 sacks, three pass breakups and a forced fumble. In the offseason, USC brought in defensive coordinator Todd Orlando, who moved Jackson to a hybrid outside linebacker role where sometimes Jackson would go into pass rush and other times would drop back in coverage. This led to mixed results as Jackson adjusted to the role in the abridged 2020 season, finishing with two sacks and 5.5 TFLs but still earning a spot on the second-team All-Pac-12 for a second consecutive year. But in his second year at the new position, Jackson feels more confident. "Last year was the first time playing that defense, being a linebacker, and I was kind of hesitant on some stuff," Jackson said, "and now I can really just go." - Orange County Register
