Jackson was a speedy receiver who was drafted by the Los Angelas Rams of the NFL in the fifth round of the 1989 NFL draft. Jackson was released by the Rams in 1991, and then spent time with the Cleveland Browns and the Miami Dolphins before signing with Winnipeg in August of 1993. While Jackson was used as a defensive back in the NFL, the Bombers soon converted him to wide receiver to make use of his speed. Jackson played with the Bombers in 1993 and 1994, compling 901 yards on just 41 catches in 1994 for an impressive 22.0 yard average reception. Jackson's speed earned him another shot at the NFL (though again at defensive back) and he signed as a free agent with the Minnesota Vikings for the 1995 season. Jackson also had a tryout with the Baltimore Ravens, before returning to the CFL with BC in 1997. His first year back in the CFL was Jackson's best as he caught 79 passes for 1322 yards to win both Western and All-Canadian All-Star honours. Jackson remained with BC through the 2002 season, picking up another western All-Star honour in 2000 with 59 catches and his second 1000+ yard receiving year. Jackson was released by the Lions in April of 2003, and he signed with the Toronto Argos where he played his final season before being released n April of 2004.
