Offensive lineman Donovan Jackson was picked 23rd overall by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2025 NFL draft. Here’s what to know about Jackson.
Jackson was a career guard at Ohio State before Josh Simmons' injury forced him out to tackle. He was more than capable at it as the Buckeyes won a national title. His movement skills and length at 6-foot-4 and 315 pounds means he could potentially make it at tackle in the NFL. If not, he'd likely be a top guard in the class. — Ayrton Ostly
Jackson was a two-time All-Big Ten guard before switching to left tackle out of necessity. His ability to protect Will Howard's blind side and open holes in the run game was essential to Ohio State's title run. The versatility he showed will enhance his draft stock. He'll be drafted as a guard, but teams will know he can move to tackle if needed. Jackson is a strong, athletic blocker who should have a long NFL career. — Bill Rabinowitz
Jackson played in 55 games (40 starts) over four seasons for Ohio State. He started 26 games at left guard and played in 11 games in 2024 at left tackle after a teammate went down with an injury.
Jackson is listed at 6-foot-4, 315 pounds.
Jackson is from Cypress, Texas.
Jackson went to Episcopal High School.
