Jacob couldn't catch a break. He broke his leg as a sophomore. He got the starting job in 2016 but struggled as he was probably dealing with the mental effects of such a catastrophic injury. He was set to be the starter again in 2017 but got hurt in the build-up to the season opener.
He was also a standout lacrosse player in high school. Jacob began his college football career as a tight end at Tyler Junior College and then moved on to the University of Tulsa.
