Carolina Panthers cornerback Donte Jackson has risen as one of the best defenders in this current rookie class.

But not even Jackson’s play could prevent a 26-20 loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium.

Jackson led the team with eight tackles, and he made some big plays throughout the game. In the first half, it was Jackson who knocked away a long pass by Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry, on a trick play.
