Ashlon Jackson shares 2-word reaction as Duke CB Chandler Rivers tops PFF list

This offseason, Duke Blue Devils guard Ashlon Jackson has been busy preparing for the 2025-26 campaign in what will be her senior year of collegiate hoops. On Apr. 7, per Nelly Sports, it was confirmed that the China, Texas, native is staying with coach Kara Lawson's Blue Devils for her fourth year, even after receiving offers from programs like the Oklahoma Sooners.

Although she has been ramping up her game in the offseason, Jackson still showed love to a fellow Duke athlete in Chandler Rivers, a cornerback for the Blue Devils football team. On Saturday, May 31, Jackson reposted a post by @pff_college on Instagram on her story that shows that Rivers is regarded as the highest-rated CB currently in the sport.

"Slight not gonna lie," Jackson captioned.

According to the PFF, Rivers is their highest-graded cornerback amongst the Power Four who is returning to college football in the 2025-26 season, which will be his senior campaign as well. He scored a 90.7, edging out the likes of Notre Dame Fighting Irish's Leonard Moore (88.4), Tennessee Volunteers' Jermod Mccoy (87.7) and Florida State Seminoles' Jeremiah Wilson (86.7).

As Jackson celebrates another standout athlete from her school in a different sport, the fourth-year player has solidified her own legacy. In her three years at Duke thus far, Jackson has averaged 8.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.9 assists, and most recently helped her team finish with an overall record of 29-8, including 14-4 during ACC play this year.
