Former All-SEC lineman Drake Jackson joining Kentucky football coaching staff

The Big Blue wall is getting one of its best pieces back in the form of coaching as former starting center Drake Jackson is expected to join the Kentucky Wildcats football coaching staff as a graduate assistant, according to Nick Roush of Kentucky Sports Radio.

Jackson will be helping coach the offensive line with new offensive line coach Zach Yenser by replacing Ryan Finck as the offensive line graduate assistant. Finck left town this offseason with former offensive line coach Eric Wolford to Alabama.

Following his final season with the Kentucky Wildcats in 2020, Jackson went undrafted after competing in the Senior Bowl.
