NC State WR Keenan Jackson Re-Signs With Savage Wolves for 2025

True Freshman Wide Receiver Keenan Jackson has re-signed with Savage Wolves, NC State’s Football NIL Branch (as a part of 1Pack), which means he will be returning in 2025.

Jackson played in all 12 games this year as a True Freshman, logging 10 receptions for 105 yards and 2 touchdowns, for an average of 10.5 yards per catch.

Many probably expected for Terrell Anderson to get the most snaps of any of the True Freshman Wide Receivers, but it was Jackson that led the bunch. Jackson had 242 snaps, compared to Anderson’s 183. Some of that might have to do with how effective he’s been in Run Blocking, with a grade of 68.7, which is the 2nd best grade by a receiver besides Junior Dacari Collins.

His PFF overall Offensive grade is 61.4.

Jackson flipped his commitment from UNC to NC State on National Signing Day last December. Rivals rated him as a 4-star prospect in the Wolfpack’s 2024 recruiting class. 247Sports ranked him as the #11 overall player in the state of North Carolina in his class.

Jackson put up crazy numbers for Weddington his Senior year (Matthews, North Carolina), with an insane 102 receptions for 1,704 yards and 19 touchdowns. Those numbers ultimately led the Warriors to a 4A State Championship.

Anderson is the 11th player to re-sign with Savage Wolves.
