Great job diagnosing play actions and RPOs. Jacobs excels at being a downhill threat rushing the QB, as well as staying productive against the pass. Very good strength and ability to disengage the block then make the tackle. Very good blitz take off speed. Bursts through the gap and gets the tackle for loss.
