Former New York Giants running back Brandon Jacobs was a key piece of the iconic 2007 team that upset the undefeated New England Patriots in the Super Bowl, as he’s bruising running style at 6’4″, 265-pounds set the offense. Based on Jacobs’ son Brayden, it seems he’s passed those genes down.
Earlier this week, the former New York Giants running back posted a video of himself working out with his son Brayden Jacobs, who is entering his freshman as a football player at Clemson University.
While Jacobs may not weigh as much as he did in his playing days, he’s certainly still as tall, which makes the sight of Brayden virtually dwarfing him all the more shocking.
Brayden Jacobs is listed on college football and high school football recruiting websites at about 6’8″ and 335 pounds.
