CB. USC. Adoree' Jackson. 28. player. 44.

The Atlanta Falcons at one time had an incredible two-way star named Deion Sanders. Aside from being the best cover corner in the league, Sanders also was a dangerous man in the return game. There is a player in college football who, to a lesser degree, could have the same kind of impact for the Falcons next season.

That player is Adoree’ Jackson, who is arguably the most electric player in the Pac-12. Aside from being the best defensive back on the Trojans roster, he is also the most dangerous return man in the conference, and is the kind of player that can turn a game on its head. If he is available late in the first round, he could be an instant fan favorite in Atlanta.

Jackson has been the most versatile player on the Trojans roster throughout his career, even dabbling on offense during his first few years on campus. He recently became the school’s all-time leader in kick return yards, and it appears his time with the Trojans is coming to an end. USC takes on Washington this week, and College Gameday will be there. Tune in to see if Jackson can lead the Trojans to an incredible upset.
