A former five-star recruit who transferred from USC to Alabama and became a full-time starter before Green Bay took him in the sixth round.
Domani Jackson arrived in college as one of the top-ranked cornerback prospects in the country, then found his footing as a two-year starter at Alabama after starting his career at USC. The Packers drafted him in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft to add depth behind their veteran secondary.
Path to the league
A San Diego, California native out of Mater Dei High School, Jackson was ranked as high as ESPN's No. 9 overall recruit nationally in the 2022 class. He played two seasons at USC before transferring to Alabama for 2024 and 2025. The Green Bay Packers selected him with the 201st overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
Career highlights
Over his two seasons at Alabama, Jackson started 23 of 28 games and recorded 91 tackles, eight passes defended, and two interceptions. He ran a 4.41-second 40-yard dash at the combine and backed it up with a 4.45 at Alabama's pro day.
2025 season recap
Jackson closed out his college career as a full-time starter in Alabama's secondary in 2025, continuing to build on the tackle and pass-breakup production that defined his two years with the Crimson Tide. He was drafted by Green Bay in the sixth round, joining second-round pick Brandon Cisse in a retooled cornerback room.
