Jacob Shepherd is a two-sport athlete with a favorable build as he heads into high school. At running back, he displays the patience of a mature ball carrier, knowing when to sidestep or power through contact. When he gets downhill early, special things happen—he finds a hole and bursts through the other side after a physical carry. His receiving ability stands out on the stat sheet, thanks to the extra yards he gains after the catch. Sheperd is a well-rounded football player poised for a bright future.
