Miami Hurricanes defensive end Joe Jackson said last month at the NFL Scouting Combine he would prove to the team that drafted him that he could “stop the run, play the pass” and do “everything in between.’’

He even said he’d “play of a little bit of outside linebacker it they need me to,’’ that he has “the athleticism to do it, the fanaticism to do it.’’

Heck, former University of Miami coach Mark Richt said he told Jackson he’d let him play tight end at times if the gifted pass-rusher returned for his senior season.
