Penn State’s kickoff against West Virginia gets closer and closer. Today, we look at one of the Nittany Lions’ 2024 recruits in Kari Jackson. The linebacker out of Michigan was rated a 3-star prospect by the 247 composite rankings, and was the No. 14 player in Michigan.
Jackson was a four-year letterman and a two-year captain for West Bloomfield High School, and graduated early to enroll at Penn State in January. With an offseason of training with the program, and an opportunity available at linebacker, Jackson could carve himself some time in the rotation. If Keon Wylie’s injury keeps him sidelined longer than expected, this could be a great opening for Jackson to take some of those open snaps.
