Clingman faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted, State’s Attorney Aisha Braveboy said.
Jackson was drafted in the fourth round of last year's NFL Draft but was never able to take a snap.
"I am absolutely crushed by this news," head coach Kevin O'Connell said at the time of Jackson's death.
"Khyree brought a contagious energy to our facility and our team. His confidence and engaging personality immediately drew his teammates to him. In our short time together, it was evident Khyree was going to develop into a tremendous professional football player, but what was more impressive was his desire to become the best person he could be for his family and those around him. I am at a loss for words. My heart goes out to Khyree's family, friends, teammates and coaches."
