Kearis Jackson, at 6-foot, has the kind of height you typically see slot receivers playing at.

He also possesses the kind of bulk on his frame, at 200 pounds, to beat jams when lined up against cornerbacks outside. This combination of size and stature has aided the Peach County product nearly halfway through spring practice, as he continues to learn what the Bulldogs want to do offensively in the passing game.

With this in mind, and by showing some football smarts already, Jackson has rotated as both an outside and inside receiver.

"He’s learning how to play in there and outside," head coach Kirby Smart said.
