Both. UDRFA CBs Jerry Jacobs and AJ Parker have been a pleasant surprise in Lions Training Camp. They both seem to have the 'it' factor.

The pre-season games are critical for both CBs, in terms of surviving the cut down to 53 players and ultimately s spot ( s ) on the Lions 53 man roster. At the very least though, they both are on a path to be high Practice Squad priorities.

Jerry Jacobs already overcame enormous odds to be in the situation he's currently in with the Lions. Jacobs' work ethic and confidence have aiding him greatly. If the Lions pull off the upset today against the Bengals, Jacobs likely will be a major reason why.

Jerry Jacobs wasn't a teammate with Matthew Stafford but I'm sure Stafford is well aware that Jacobs is a tenacious CB. Jacobs will be tested by Stafford. It's the type of opportunity that should make Jacobs a better player, even if he's beaten on some passing plays.

Jerry Jacobs made a great decision signing with the Lions as an UDRFA. Very likely, no other NFL team would have given Jacobs the opportunity to be a starter for 6 games and counting, in his rookie season. This combined with the high quality coaching Jacobs is receiving puts Jacobs in position to have a long NFL playing career, if he remains relatively healthy for the most part.

Jerry Jacobs is one of the best stories of the Lions 2021 season and a prime example of what Dan Campbell as looking for as a major part of his program present and future.

Hopefully, the knee injury that Jerry Jacobs suffered won't permanently reduce his physical skills. Until there's more info about the type of knee injury, the only assumption that can be made is Jacobs is heading to IR for the remainder of his rookie season.
