Biography:
2003: Jackson was active for only the first two regular season games. Many will be watching him at 2004 summer camp to see if the former college defensive end has made the transition to outside linebacker for his second year with the Steelers.

With their second pick of the 2003 draft, the Steelers decided to improve their pass rush as well as bring in a new 3-4 'tweener to groom for the OLB position, so they drafted Florida State's Alonzo Jackson. The Steelers liked Jackson's quickness on the field, speed rushing the edge, and vertical-leap ability and long arms to block passes.

At Florida State, Alonzo was a 2-year starter who earned a second team All-Conference selection his senior year with 42 tackles (18.5 for loss) and 13 sacks. His 23 sacks rank fifth on the school's career list. Only Darnell Dockett (47, 2000-02) and Ron Simmons (44, 1977-80) had more tackles for losses in FSU annals.
