Jackson to CFL

It's official.

Linebacker Greg Jackson is headed up north. The second-year Blizzard linebacker was placed on the league-transfer list on April 12 and will be entering training camp with the CFL's Calgary Stampeders.

Jackson played in the Blizzard's first three games of the season, tallying 23 tackles, 1.5 sacks and three interceptions.

Last season Jackson led the Green Bay defense and was third in the IFL with 113 total tackles. He also compiled seven sacks, forced a fumble, returned an interception for a touchdown and recorded a franchise-record 14 tackles against La Crosse on May 7.

Meanwhile, Trevor Glomski has taken over the Mac linebacker position for Jackson.
