Darrell Lamont Jackson (born December 6, 1978 in Dayton, Ohio) is an American football wide receiver currently playing for the Seattle Seahawks of the National Football League. Prior to playing for the Seahawks, Jackson attended the University of Florida. He was drafted in the third round of the 2000 NFL Draft, being the 15th wide receiver drafted. Jackson went to Tampa Catholic High in Florida. On December 18, 2005 he made his first appearance for the Seahawks after returning from an injury that he received playing the Washington Redskins; in this appearance he helped carry the Seahawks to victory with a touchdown reception.

In 2004 Jackson set a Seattle Seahawks franchise record with 87 receptions. In Super Bowl XL Jackson tied the record for most receptions made in the first quarter of a Super Bowl with five, tying former Bills Wide Receiver Andre Reed. Despite his brilliant performance, Seattle lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 21-10. He was denied a touchdown catch in the first quarter, due to a controversial offensive pass interference penalty.

Darrell referred to himself as D-Jack on the introductions to the Super Bowl. He was named McDonald's All-American honorable mention for being a basketball player. He finished high school with a 3.64 GPA and made the Dean's List as a junior at Florida. Jackson has 7 brothers and sisters. Jackson lives in Tampa, Florida during the offseason. Darrell has been known for dropping balls. Although he is regarded as an elite receiver, he isn't put up into the group such as Steve Smith and Chad Johnson because of his injuries and dropped balls.
