J.C. Jackson, who came into the league undrafted, has risen as one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL.
The 26-year-old is an absolute ballhawk and the numbers prove it, as he’s led the league with the most interceptions (25) over the past four seasons. Jackson signed a five-year, $82.5 million deal with the Los Angles Chargers that makes him the seventh-highest paid cornerback.
Jackson had guidance from Bill Belichick and Stephon Gilmore for a majority of his career and his potential was quickly noticed. Now, he’ll be the leader of the Chargers’ cornerback group and it will carry a different weight.
