HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Boys & Girls Clubs of Hutchinson welcomes Jerry Jacobs, a cornerback for the Detroit Lions, back to where his NFL journey began, Gowans Stadium.
Jacobs’ path to the NFL started in a place where many promising football careers end: in junior college. Hutchinson Community College gave Jacobs his opportunity to start and show that he was capable of playing at a high level. Jacobs’ journey is one of facing difficult odds and persevering. He credits his mother with instilling in him the importance of giving back to the community.
