Jacob consistently shows up on film as a disciplined and assignment-sound defender who understands how to play within the structure of the defense. He’s quick to get proper depth at the snap and keeps routes in front of him, limiting explosive plays. On passing downs, he reads the quarterback well, showing the ability to break on throws once the ball is committed rather than guessing early. His film also highlights how well he takes angles in pursuit, rarely overrunning plays and doing a good job cutting off space. When the ball is in the air, Jacob competes through the catch point and works to finish plays instead of settling for pass breakups. Overall, his tape reflects a reliable, detail-oriented player who consistently puts himself in the right position and makes sound football plays.
