Jacobs impressed all the coaches with his offseason work with the WR coaches. He really improved his route running and knowledge of the game plans. He did extra film study and worked his butt off in the weight room. I think it may be a good time to see what he is made of. Our #2 receiver (patten) really hasn't contributed much this season. Jacobs has good speed and is our biggest receiver(6' 200 lbs). He could be pretty good at going across the middle and turning some slants into pretty big gains. I think he will make an impact this week. Players that have the opportunity to prove themselves in these situations usually step up to the plate. I have been waiting to see what this kid can do. Hopefully he does something that merits extensive playing time, because if he doesn't our #2 guy is going to be Thrash, OUCH!!!!!
