Scout report
A. Jackson is a 24-year-old central midfielder at Columbus Crew, rated 39.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 164th of 513 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (22.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.95 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Jackson.
Judged on this season alone, Jackson graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 70th of 84 of the 84 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 2 goals, 1 assist and 1.946 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 17 → 12). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 39, top 36% of the 84 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 24 Jackson is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Columbus Crew finished 8th of 15 · a mid-table side
1.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 18 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.37 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 22.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 39.3, Jackson carries the 30th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 84 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
