Player Story

Dante Jackson story

Dante Jackson built his college career from 2020 through 2024 as a placekicker from Chico, CA wearing No. 36, spending time with Akron and Oregon State. The clearest part of Dante Jackson's career was his field-position work: 65 punts, 2,437 punting yards, and 13 punts inside the 20 across 13 career games in the available record. His largest box-score season came in 2023 with Akron. Those numbers show where he fit, how often the ball or action found him, and how his role developed over time.

Special-teams careers depend on repeatable opportunity, not just one highlight. His career also includes 22 rushing yards and 3 tackles, giving the story more than a single-category snapshot. With 13 career games in the available record, his career has enough shape to show both opportunity and production across Akron and Oregon State.

The arc is straightforward: Dante Jackson moved through the depth chart, found a larger role, and turned that opportunity into production that can be understood through standard football numbers.
