Sometimes, Jonah Jackson has to slap himself to know he isn't dreaming.

It's real, and the grad transfer from Rutgers is about to suit up in the #B1GFCG.

Jonah Jackson was overlooked coming out of high school. He spent four years playing for one of the worst teams in the nation.

Now, he’s about to play a crucial role in the #CFBPlayoff.

Here’s a look at his incredible journey to this moment. https://t.co/csTE6Guxmx

JONAH JACKSON, LG
Jackson is another fifth-year senior who could have opted to declare for the 2019 NFL draft but instead chose to play for Ohio State last season – in his case, graduate transferring from Rutgers to do so – and that decision should pay off for him this spring, as it gave him the opportunity to make a name for himself while starting at left guard for one of the best teams and more specifically, one of the best offensive lines in the country.

Paired with Josh Myers and Wyatt Davis, who both opted to stay at Ohio State for their fourth-year junior seasons instead of entering the 2020 NFL draft, Jackson was part of arguably the nation’s best interior offensive line. He was dominant with a mean streak in the run game, often leading the Buckeyes in pancake blocks, while he was also one of the team’s most consistent pass blockers.

Jackson proved to be a perfect fit for a position of need on Ohio State’s offensive line this past season, and now, he’s a perhaps overlooked NFL draft prospect who has the tools to be a potential starter at the next level. Another likely middle-round draft selection, Jackson will have the opportunity to get more NFL scouts and draft analysts talking about him when he participates in the Senior Bowl later this month.

JONAH JACKSON has had two great practices ⁦@seniorbowl⁩ He will learn that NFL guards set for the whole man (not inside half of the defender like this rep). But he has a bright future. pic.twitter.com/J6rY7Nahpy
