Oregon cornerback Khyree Jackson, who played two seasons at Alabama, has accepted an invitation to play in the 2024 Reese’s Senior Bowl.
Jackson (6-foot-3, 195 pounds) totaled 34 tackles, seven pass breakups, three interceptions and two sacks as a starting cornerback for the Ducks in 2023. He played the 2021 and 2022 seasons at Alabama after transferring from junior college, totaling 14 tackles and two pass breakups in 14 games with the Crimson Tide.
Jackson is one of several players with state ties in the 75th anniversary Senior Bowl, which takes place Feb. 3 in Mobile, including two fellow transfers who also began their college careers in-state — quarterback Bo Nix (Auburn to Oregon) and offensive lineman Javien Cohen (Alabama to Miami). Also among those confirmed for the annual all-star game and NFL draft showcase are Alabama kicker Will Reichard and defensive linemen Justin Eboigbe and Chris Braswell; Auburn defensive backs DJ James, Nehemiah Pritchett and Jaylin Simpson and defensive lineman Marcus Harris; Troy running back Kimani Vidal and linebacker Javon Solomon; Missouri defensive back (and former Spanish Fort star) Kris Abrams-Draine, Mississippi State linebacker (and Maplesville native) Nathaniel Watson and Ole Miss defensive end (and Mobile native) Cedric Johnson.
