Carter Jacobs was a top 200 safety coming out of high school, rated a three-star prospect by ESPN and Rivals. After playing for American Heritage, the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida native signed his letter of intent for the Cincinnati Bearcats and that has appeared to be a good decision for the safety, who has been a consistent and frequent contributor to the UC secondary in his first three seasons.
It starts with durability, an area Jacobs has been pretty strong in. Although he only played 11 games last season, he saw action in 13 contests both as a freshman and as a sophomore.
