The 6-foot-3 225-pound receiver was expected to make a big contribution for the Bulldogs this season after appearing in all 13 games last season at both wide receiver and special teams.
Out of Landry-Walker HS, Jason chose the Bulldogs over the in-state LSU Tigers. he was slotted to be a problem for defensive backs at the college level because of his size and his ability to go up and win a fight for the ball in traffic.
He had not made any catches so far this season.
