The Razorbacks had solid depth at defensive tackle in 2019, Enoch Jackson Jr's first year on campus. Marcus Miller was the first of the three freshmen defensive tackles to see game action but once he went down with an injury, Jackson started dressing out.

The 6-foot tackle from Texas got 13 snaps in the loss against Mississippi State and then three more against Western Kentucky, for no stats. He was able to redshirt with two games under his belt.

Going from 280 in high school to 292 this winter, Jackson is now weighing in at 298 and he's ready to meaningfully contribute.

There are some veterans on the roster this season including Jonathan Marshall, Xavier Kelly and Isaiah Nichols but we should see some decent contributions from Enoch Jackson as well. Phil Steele even has Jackson as a starter on his depth chart.

I think that's a bit presumptuous but there's no doubt Jackson has the kind of explosiveness and get-off that coaches love to see and he can work his way into the rotation as a redshirt freshman. If injuries start to hit the defensive line then it's likely all three redshirt freshmen defensive tackles will get some meaningful experience as Taurean Carter has started to come along as well.

One of three 2019 signees out of Legacy High School in Mansfield, Texas, Jackson was the first of the group to commit in August heading into his senior season and he helped bring the other two, Taurean Carter and Jalen Catalon, on board.

He'd racked up offers from 22 programs including Clemson, Georgia, Florida and more but his relationship with then-corners coach Mark Smith and head coach Chad Morris was enough to beat out all the competition. Jackson took two official visits, one to Texas Tech in the summer and one to Arkansas just before signing day.
