USC cornerback Adoree’ Jackson welcomes the workload.

Jackson played a season-high 94 plays, including 30 on offense, in the Trojans’ loss to Washington.

He said Wednesday that he was not overburdened.

“Not at all,” he said after practice. “I want to do more.”

Jackson has 10 receptions, one for a touchdown.

Interim Coach Clay Helton said playing the sophomore 100 snaps a game would not be fair to Jackson.

“It doesn’t make him totally effective,” said Helton, who added that it’s most important for Jackson to be effective on defense.
