“Just to keep the foot on the pedal,” Jackson said, via Omar Navarro of the Chargers’ website. “I feel like the last two seasons I’ve emerged, to me personally, as one of the top corners in the league. That’s just kind of how I feel, so just adding to that.
“I’m team first, so I don’t have a personal agenda. I don’t have any personal goals but to be the best teammate I could be. Just blessed to have a group of guys that share that same mindset. Nobody is selfish. Nobody has selfish goals.”
