Joe Jackson was formerly the defensive end of the Miami Hurricanes. Today, he’ll be playing for the Dallas Cowboys. Another talent from the University of Miami lands a career in pro football.
Financial advisor and long-time Hurricanes fan Patrick Dwyer expects much from the superstar and is looking forward to supporting Jackson, even if he’s donning a Cowboys jersey.
Looking at Jackson’s base stats, you can already imagine the kind of impact he can make in a game. Jackson stands at six-foot-four and weighs 275 pounds. His arm length is at 34 and a half inches. He has a hand size of 10 inches. He was known as a fierce pass rusher for the Miami Hurricanes. But instead of playing his final year with the Hurricanes, Jackson decided to turn pro and was the 27th player drafted in the fifth round (no. 165 overall) by the Dallas Cowboys.
The lone star state chose this defensive end for a reason. Though he doesn’t have the unnatural bend and lowered center of gravity that’s common in the NFL’s best pass rushers, Jackson has several tools up his sleeve when it comes to attacking the pocket.
Jackson’s athleticism makes him a threat for easy combinations. This also makes him capable of being flexible in terms of his role. Former Hurricanes coach Mark Richt said he could play as a tight end. Jackson even said he could play as an outside linebacker if needed. According to Patrick Dwyer, he wouldn’t be surprised if Jackson was assigned a different position but would prefer if he stayed as a defensive end just to see those spectacular passes fall in his arms.
Besides being a Miami Hurricanes fan, financial advisor Patrick Dwyer actively supports the Neuroscience Centers of Florida Foundation, Inc. (NSCFF) in its aim to enhance further the quality of care for patients with chronic neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and multiple sclerosis.
