Since the Heisman Trophy winner is an upcoming star athlete in the league, he faces criticism on social media about his play. Although when he reads through them, it does not make him angry. In fact, he channels it in a more productive way.

In a rare interview in 2019, Jamie Taylor, Jackson’s girlfriend, talked to the Baltimore Ravens.”He’s taught me how to handle criticism,” Taylor said. “I mean, I used to get mad when I’d read stuff. Then I’d look at him, and he’s just fine. He says, ‘Let them do the talking. You don’t have to say anything. Just show them.'”
