The tweet sounded as if the problems were personal and not related to football.
Jackson, from Jefferson, Texas, was highly-touted coming in but only saw action in three games, catching a single pass for just 2 yards.
Fellow freshmen Treylon Burks and Trey Knox put up big numbers. Another four-star recruit in the same class, Shamar Nash, is still on the team and could factor into the plans going forward.
The Razorbacks have four-star wide receiver Darin Turner from Memphis signed in December.
