Look, Josh Jackson has easily been one of the most common punching bags for the Green Bay Packers’ fanbase – and for good reason. But his 2020 season, so far at least, has certainly opened some eyes and proven that maybe he just took a bit longer than most to finally get to his ceiling as a professional.
Jackson was taken in the second round out of Iowa, the same draft that the team also took Jaire Alexander with the 18th overall selection. Obviously, the team was desperate for competent cornerback play, and the 2018 NFL Draft certainly fit the bit for them to want to upgrade, hence the two early selections of DBs.
