Expectations have already been set for several Jackson State football players in 2026.
The SWAC announced its preseason awards on July 8, and defensive back Kam Sallis was picked as the conference's Defensive Player of the Year. Five other Tigers also made the All-SWAC teams.
The awards were voted on by the conference's head coaches and sports information directors.
Sallis is the Tigers' most prominent returning defensive player. Last season, as a starting safety, he totaled 53 tackles with two interceptions and two forced fumbles. He made the All-SWAC second team.
Sallis is one of three players to make the preseason All-SWAC first team and the only defensive player. The others are offensive lineman Quaveon Davis and wide receiver Nate Rembert.
