Donte Jackson: Panthers' second-round pick brings speed and swagger to secondary | The Herald

This promises to be a busy and important spring and summer for Donte Jackson.

The Panthers’ second-round pick and former LSU cornerback arrived in Charlotte on Thursday and will begin his NFL career in earnest this weekend during the team’s rookie minicamp.

Another big milestone in Jackson’s life comes in June with the expected arrival of his daughter. Jackson and his girlfriend already have a name picked out (Demi Dalia) as well as a nickname (Baby Action Jackson).

Demi will have dad to thank for her nickname – and likely her speed.
