Part 8/12:
One of the more technical topics covered involved Jackson's comfort and growth working under center, a skill crucial for NFL success. The coach stated there's no challenge per se, but rather a different experience that Jackson enjoys. Over the bye week, they focused on blending under-center snaps with shotgun formations, ensuring the QB can adapt effectively to various game situations.
Jackson is developing his eye and head movements, especially with run action fakes, to better identify defensive coverage and improve reaction times. His comfort with under-center work is growing, and his ability to execute fakes and read defenses continues to evolve. The coach highlighted that this growth will enhance the team’s overall run and pass game, making their offense more versatile.
