Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers second-round pick garnering interest Aaron Wilson
Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Dexter Jackson has drawn interest from three NFL teams, according to his agent, Brian Ayrault.
The former second-round draft pick from Appalachian State expects to sign with a team as soon as next week.
Two of the three teams are AFC franchises.
At the NFL scouting combine, Jackson ran the 40-yard dash faster than any other receiver with a 4.27 clocking.
Jackson was cut by the Buccaneers on Aug. 31 after not catching a pass during his rookie season.
The 23-year-old is one of the fastest players in the league.

Kinda hard to catch a pass during your rookie season when they rarely, if ever let him off the bench. Watching Jackson at App, I feel he has to make it as a receiver. He is too prone to less than wise decisions as a punt returner, even though he does have the potential to break one every now and then.

"The 23-year-old is one of the fastest players in the league."
Jackson is also one of the fastest 2nd-round picks to ever get cut for on-field issues.
