Tim Jackson Anchoring the Interior
Posted Aug 8, 2013
Tim Jackson played alongside first-round NFL draft pick Sylvester Williams in 2012. This fall, however, the senior defensive tackle will take over both his former teammate’s position and leadership role. Jackson (18 tkl, 4.0 TFL, sack in ’12) moved to nose tackle last season after playing defensive end his first two years in Chapel Hill.
