Former NFL coach Jon Gruden couldn’t contain his excitement over Josh Jacobs’ performance, summing it up with a succinct yet powerful four-word phrase: “I love this guy.”
The comment, posted on X by @barstoolgruden on Friday evening, accompanied a striking video of a football play featuring Jacobs, the Green Bay Packers’ dynamic running back.
The video, captured mid-game, highlights Jacobs poised for action against a defensive line, showcasing his pivotal role on the field. Gruden, known for his enthusiastic breakdowns and deep football insight, has long been a vocal admirer of Jacobs’ talent.
Gruden's breakdown of the video underscores his elation with the play of Jacobs, who has been one of the best running backs in the NFL over the recent years, eclipsing the 1,000-yard rushing mark in four of the last six seasons.
