MIAMI (June 12, 2019) – Next up in our Q&A series with FIU football is Daniel Jackson. The Panther is coming off another great season at FIU, after playing in all 13 games this season.

A native of Apex, North Carolina, Jackson recorded seven tackles on the season as a sophomore, including five solo tackles and two unassisted. His contributions in the secondary helped FIU rank fourth overall in Conference USA for passing defense and sixth in the league for pass defense efficiency. Jackson was an important component on an FIU defense that recorded 17 total interceptions, which ranked second in Conference USA and 11th overall in the nation.
