"Khalil Jacobs has a real shot to make the Patriots' 53-man roster given New England's clearout of the linebacker room, despite being signed later than other Patriots UDFAs."
"Last season for the Tigers, Jacobs saw a significant increase in defensive snaps, recording 47 tackles, three sacks, and two pass breakups with a 74.5 PFF grade."
"Jacobs stands at 6-foot-1, 227 pounds, ran a 4.77-second 40-yard dash, and his Relative Athletic Score (RAS) was a 6.44 out of 10."
The New England Patriots made several free agent signings, including linebacker Khalil Jacobs, following the draft. Jacobs, who previously played at South Alabama and Missouri, has a chance to secure a spot on the 53-man roster due to recent departures in the linebacker position. Last season, he recorded 47 tackles and three sacks, showcasing significant improvement. His performance on special teams also enhances his candidacy. The Patriots' interest in Jacobs is notable, especially given the lack of standout depth options at linebacker.
