When asked about the running backs on Saturday, Day said Jackson has “had a very good start to camp” and has “certainly stood out.”
"The first thing is his reads and the way he's hitting the hole has really shown up," Day said. "I think he's doing a much better job at the second level. And we've talked about it before, either running over them or you’re running around and making them miss, and you're seeing that. It's showing up on film. It did not show up on film last year. We all know it.
"It’s just practice, so it doesn't matter until he puts it in the game, but if he continues to keep building and practicing and stacking these practices the way he's doing it, it's going to show up in the game. And that's going to be a big part of who we are this year. We felt like there was a lot of good there last year, but there was also a lot of football that we left on the field, and so (making defenders miss is) a big point of emphasis that so far, he's been responding to."
