Player appeared in only a single NFL game. Has not received significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, so fails WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. ––FormalDude (talk) 04:11, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

- The article in its current state leaves much to be desired, but I have a hard time believing that a Defensive MVP of the NFL Europe league didn't receive enough SIGCOV to be considered notable. I have a feeling someone will dig up enough to demonstrate notability, though I myself don't have time to do so at the moment. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:23, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Passes GNG [1][2][3][4] I'm sure there's more but I don't feel like looking right now. I don't think a modern NFL player who actually played has ever been deleted. They usually have enough coverage. Also, I cleaned up the article. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 14:10, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Meets GNG per above sources. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 17:05, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Clearly notable per the sources presented above by WikiOriginal-9. Just about anyone who's played in the NFL in modern times (excepting the 1987 replacement players) will be notable. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:24, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per GNG. Playing in "only" one NFL game doesn't negate that. Rlendog (talk) 19:36, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: This subject easily meets the WP:GNG, although it should be noted that there are no longer any participation criteria for American football players. Let'srun (talk) 21:59, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Passes GNG with the above sources and others in the article (I've cleaned it up considerably). Modern day players who reach the NFL tend to have had a notable college career, which is the case for Jackson who was notable for both football and basketball in college. For these players, Newspapers.com is a much better place to find sources rather than Google. Alvaldi (talk) 09:46, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
