Jonah Jackson, from Penncrest High, moved up from Rutgers to Ohio State, and now aims for the NFL

NFL teams were impressed with his quick ascent to become a leader for the Buckeyes. He could play guard or center as a pro.

In this photo taken Nov. 16, 2019, Ohio State's Jonah Jackson (73) stands with Rutgers' Zach Venesky (75) after an NCAA college football game in Piscataway, N.J. The game was a homecoming of sorts for Jackson, and Scarlet Knights captain Venesky was enjoying the get-together. Jackson is one of his best friends and a major reason Venesky is a captain this year. (AP Photo/Matt Sugam)
