Austin Jackson’s character can make him a success for Miami Dolphins

The 2019 season saw the Miami Dolphins struggle to protect their quarterbacks, with their offensive line considered to be one of the worst in the entire league.

Some free agent additions along with some promising draft selections will hopefully see the team’s fortunes improve dramatically in 2020, with Austin Jackson one of the key pieces added this off-season.

Entering the draft, Jackson was viewed as a supremely talented, athletic, raw out-and-out left tackle prospect, something the Dolphins couldn’t afford to pass up after selecting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa with the fifth-overall pick.

Sometimes considered an inconsistent prospect at one of the most important positions on the team, Jackson is a guy that projects to step into the Dolphins’ starting left tackle spot.
