Jacobs, 27, entered the NFL as an undrafted rookie with the Detroit Lions in 2021. The 5-foot-11, 203-pound corner by way of Hutchinson Community College, Arkansas State and Arkansas now stands 40 games in. Making 29 starts, Jacobs totaled 131 tackles as well as one sack, four interceptions, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery while part of the NFC North. He signed with the Los Angeles Rams last training camp before being let go ahead of the league’s cutdown.

The cornerback depth chart in Foxborough currently includes 11 names. Starters Christian Gonzalez, Carlton Davis III and top nickel Marcus Jones reside alongside Alex Austin, Marcellas Dial Jr., Isaiah Bolden, Kobee Minor, Miles Battle, D.J. James, Brandon Crossley and Jordan Polk.
