Calgary Stampeders running back Don Jackson has been lighting up the stat sheet early on in 2018, but his red-hot start hasn’t been limited to the football field: The Sacramento, Ca. native released a 10-track mixtape, titled Jack of All Trades under the name Don Jayy, on Soundcloud late last week.

“(Rapping) has been my thing since I was probably 16, but I never had the confidence or maybe the (tools) to make it happen,” Jackson told Danny Austin of the Calgary Sun. “It’s something (me and my producer, Shaheed) have been talking about for a long time, and we finally got it done.”

Through four games in 2018, Jackson has racked up 396 rush yards and a pair of touchdowns.

The mixtape is available on Spotify and Soundcloud, and can be purchased on CDBaby.
