Scooter Jackson | S | UCLA
With Louisville likely to add one or two defensive backs to its secondary, Scooter Jackson emerges as a prime target for the Cardinals. Jackson ranks as one of the top safeties still available, as only Ian Foster ranks above him. The UCLA transfer ranks No. 474 overall and is No. 38 among safeties in the Transfer Portal after his junior season.
He started his career at Utah Tech, earning 55 tackles, nine pass breakups, and two tackles for a loss, then entered the portal and transferred to UCLA. With the Bruins, he started in eight of the 12 games in the 2025 season and logged 44 tackles, three interceptions, three pass deflections, a tackle for a loss, and a forced fumble.
