Malachi Biggs, a former defensive back for Delaware State University (DSU), has filed a lawsuit against head coach DeSean Jackson, alleging he failed to take action against teammate Anthony Hebert after an assault in the locker room on November 19, 2025. According to the lawsuit, Hebert choked Biggs until he lost consciousness over an Instagram post, resulting in multiple fractures in his jaw and nine broken teeth. The lawsuit names Jackson, assistant coach Travis Clark, director of football operations Jane Hicks, and the university, claiming they created an unsafe environment and ignored prior incidents involving Hebert. Despite the assault, Hebert was allowed to play in a game against South Carolina State just three days later and was later hired as a coach. Jackson responded to the allegations, stating he prioritizes the safety and well-being of student-athletes and has never encouraged a violent culture within the program. The case highlights serious concerns regarding supervision and the handling of violence in college sports environments.
