The Arkansas Razorbacks landed one player on the 2024 Preseason Coaches All-SEC teams, the league announced Thursday.

Arkansas had one first-team selection in defensive end Landon Jackson. This marks a significant drop off from last year, when six Razorbacks were named to the preseason lists.

If anyone from the Hogs was going to be given this honor, Jackson is the most deserving. Standing at 6-foot-7, 280-pounds, the senior has already been named to multiple award watch lists like the Bronko Nagurski, Chuck Bednarik, Lombardi and others.

Last year, Jackson started all 12 games as an edge-rusher and earned First-Team All-SEC recognition from the league's coaches after leading Arkansas in tackles for loss (13.5) and sacks (6.5). He also finished with a career-high 44 total tackles.

According to an NFL mock draft by Field Yates of ESPN, Jackson is projected to be a first-round selection in 2025. Yates has Jackson tabbed as the No. 30 overall pick to the Detroit Lions, where he would join former Razorback offensive linemen Frank Ragnow and Dan Skipper.

Here's a look at the complete Preseason All-SEC football teams. Georgia led the way with 15 selections and Alabama had 14.
