Jacobs was recruited to Iowa as part of the 2019 class, a low 4-star (.9069) in the 24/7 composite and at the time a huge coup over Ohio State which was after him hard for his 6’4” length and 4.6s 40yd time. The only reason he wasn’t rated higher were concerns about being underweight, but he quickly put those away by bulking up to 240 lbs without losing any athleticism. He redshirted his first year, then played sparingly during the covid holiday season in 2020. He played extensively throughout 2021, the season I acquired and charted all of his film, but after an FCS opener in 2022 was injured and missed the rest of last year.
