Landon Jackson: Set for a Return, but Not to the Arkansas Razorbacks
After a standout junior season with the Arkansas Razorbacks, Landon Jackson’s name was synonymous with relentless edge rushing and leadership on defense. However, following the 2024 college football season, whispers of Jackson entering the transfer portal began to surface. By December, the rumors solidified into fact: Jackson was indeed making a return, but not to Fayetteville.
Instead, Jackson had set his sights on a new challenge. After lengthy discussions with his family, coaches, and a few trusted mentors, he decided to transfer to the University of Southern California (USC). The Trojans, fresh off their own struggles on defense, offered a perfect platform for Jackson to elevate his game while pursuing his NFL dreams.
At a press conference, Jackson addressed his decision:
“I’ll always be grateful to the Razorback family. They’ve shaped me into the player I am today, and leaving isn’t easy. But this move is about growth and opportunity—on and off the field.”
The announcement sparked mixed reactions. Razorback fans expressed disappointment but ultimately wished him well, while USC supporters were ecstatic about adding a proven pass-rusher to their roster.
Jackson’s return to college football now carried a new storyline—a talented defensive end with unfinished business, eager to prove his worth in the national spotlight under the bright lights of Lo
