The Minor High School football field has felt the stomp of several NFL players. Brandon Johnson, former NFL linebacker of the Arizona Cardinals and the Cincinnati Bengals, Bryan Thomas, former linebacker and defensive end for the New York Jets and Nick Williams, NFL defensive end for the Kansas City Chiefs and the Pittsburgh Steelers. It’s safe to say that JaCure’ Jackson a 2017 quarterback is in good company.
JaCure’ is described as a pocket passer with solid arm strength and some ability to make plays with his legs as well. He stands 6 feet 4.5 inches tall and weighs 222 pounds. He has already thrown for 2,012 yards so far this season with 26 passing touchdowns. He also posted 309 rushing yards with 5 touchdowns. Right now, according to Max Preps Alabama Stat Leaders list, JaCure’ is only 1 yard away from being in the #1 position for Total Yards.
JaCure’ and the Tigers are seven games in and have scored an average of 52 points per game. They have a record of 7-0 right now and with the help of his “HollaAtcha” Boys, JaCure’ and the Tigers are certain to move into the playoffs again this year.
