Darrell Jackson Jr.

He's been hurt.

Darrell Jackson Jr. finally got some run this week and last week, and, you know, he's, you know, he was a late-round pick.

He was, what, fourth-round pick? Like, we're getting not a lot out of him.

So that draft class looks not great so far, but it's early.

J- Harrison Phillips had two pressures on 15 pass rush attempts.

Jackson had-

Darrell Jackson had one pressure on 15.

Tavondre Sweat had one on 14.

Jamie Erdman had one on five.

I'm not singling out anyone saying, "This is the problem, this is the problem." It's just collectively not good enough.

Again, there are different parts where you're like, you know, there was one play Darrell Jackson Jr. had a great play.

It, it should've been a run stuff.

Jahmyr Gibbs was able to cut back across the other side of the field, but there was no containment.

And again, he, he missed a lot of training camp, so he's trying to get back to that NFL speed where other guys have shown, you know, have, have played for, for two weeks beforehand.

Um, the one play that I continue to go back to is just, it- it's, it's containment 101.

Darrell Jackson Jr. makes a great play at the line of scrimmage.

He stuffs at an initial outside zone run.

They said he could potentially come back later this year, but that's a guy in the run game that you need.

So now we're going to have to rely on a rookie, Darrell Jackson Jr., potentially, to fill in his spot.

And he's looked okay, but once again, he's a rookie.

So it's not going to be like Onyemata, who's this 10-year vet that we know we can rely on.

[laughs] Um, a lot of guys that Packers fans know because they wanted us to make moves for them this off season, David Onyemata, Harrison Phillips, uh, Travon Sweat, those are, those are guys that are gonna be the starters on this team.

Surprising to me, Darrell Jackson Jr. was actually fifth in the pecking order for their interior defensive line, so, like, he's not playing very much.

Interesting.

Yeah.

Um, you like to see that.

Darrell Jackson played.

I didn't notice him in a good or a bad way.

Uh, Pons should be back pretty soon a- and they're gonna need him, which we'll talk about.

And if you are gonna try and rush up the middle, this is a big Austin Slopman, Peter Skowronski, Fernando Carmona game Like if you are going to rush up the middle, you're gonna have loads to deal with.

Tavondre Sweat, David Onyemata, Harrison Phillips, and Darrell Jackson Jr. are all loads to contend with.

Mm.

And so you gotta be nasty and violent like they have been, maybe not Peter Skowronski-
