JJ in an awkward spot, what line would you take?

Hi guys, I'm playing the $54+r tournament on Party when 60 players remain of the 296 field. 40 Players gets paid.

Just won a nice pot raising pre w/QQ and someone 3betshoved w/AQs.
A couple of hands later I have JJ and villain is bigstacked and I'm feeling I've being pushed maybe cause he's CL. Not wanted to get much out of line though.
What line would you take?

I'm playing 21/17, 8,6 3bet
Villain is playing 24/25, 12,5 3bet

Thanks in advance!

im thinking he quite often has Ax here. Likely AT+, depending on how he's been playing. Kx suited is another possibillity, especially if i read things correctly that he was in late position?! + he's bigstack after all...

then again, he is bigstack so he could have air ...

I prefer 4betting and try to get it in pre. As played, I would probably call. I do think you will be beat quite a bit, but on this river I expect him to be bluffing with a high enough frequency for this to be a profitable call.

I'm making an inducing sized 4 bet pre almost always. As played, we're pretty under-repped and I don't dislike a turn lead which looks pretty FOS. I'd probably lead turn and not fold.

With your action, villains hand looks like Ax a whole lot but it's obviously also a great card for him to bluff since he 3 bet us. We only have his preflop stats and no postflop info in the OP but it lends to a LAG style and I think a call is ok here.

Do you have any stats on his agg % here? Could be good to know how often hes barreling. What do you guys think about leading river here for say 1/3 of the pot or maybe even a little smaller. I think it's a better spot for us, its going to cost us less chips when we lose the pot, hes probably going to flat his aces and raise his flushes meaning we can get away from the hand pretty easily. I do think hes gna bet this river everytime for value or as a bluff so I like leading out, its gna get rid of his bluffs but it will minimze the amount of chips we lose when he bets half the pot.
