Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports

The Tennessee Vols received some great news on Monday to start the final week of April. 

Shortly after lunch on Monday, 2025 four-star wide receiver Radarious Jackson committed to Tennessee. 

Jackson, 6-foot-2/195 lbs from Memphis, TN, is rated in 247Sports' composite rankings as the No. 29 wide receiver in the nation and the No. 6 player in the state of Tennessee. 

Scouting report via 247Sports: Two-way prospect that flashes excellent athleticism in all three phases of the game. Long strider that exhibits good initial quickness and short area change of direction ability off the line of scrimmage and in and out of breaks at the top of the route. Basketball background that’s evident in his ability to win at the catch point and outside the numbers. Flashes outstanding leaping ability and strong hands that lend to his vertical playmaking ability. Appears to have good play speed to outrun defenders in the open field in addition to above average run after catch and make you miss ability.

Jackson is viewed as a great athlete who has top-notch route running abilities and is extremely dangerous after the catch. He also has the speed to win vertically against tough competition. Essentially, he's everything that Josh Heupel and his staff love in a wide receiver. 

Tennessee now has nine players committed to its 2025 recruiting class. That number should increase significantly in the next couple of months.
