Kentucky has had one of the best offensive lines in the entire country in recent years. The Wildcats were finalists for the Joe Moore Award, given annually to the nation’s best offensive line, in 2021.

Now, the Wildcats could be bringing back a recent star to serve as a coach.

Per Kentucky Sports Radio’s Matt Jones, Drake Jackson is likely to head back to Lexington as an assistant offensive line coach:

Jackson graduated from Kentucky in 2020. He was a team captain in 2020. He played in 47 career games with the Wildcats, making 44 consecutive starts at the center position.

Jackson went undrafted in the 2021 NFL Draft.
