The Detroit Lions have been hit hard by injuries in recent weeks, particularly on defense, with key players such as defensive tackle Alim McNeill and cornerback Carlton Davis III possibly suffering season-ending injuries during the Lions’ loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. In light of these setbacks, former Lions cornerback Jacobs sparked rumors of a possible return with a post on X (formerly Twitter). At 12:47 p.m. ET on Monday, he shared a message reading, “The secret of success is to be ready when your opportunity comes,” accompanied by three red ‘100’ emojis. The post quickly gained attention, reaching over 100,000 views by early Tuesday morning, as fans speculated about his return to the team. “Come home,” tweeted Metro Detroit’s Woodward Sports in response, while others commented, expressing hope for Jacobs’ return. Jacobs, who is 5-foot-11 and weighs 203 pounds, was released by the Los Angeles Rams in August after playing three seasons with the Lions. In his last season in Detroit (2023), Jacobs recorded 55 tackles, three interceptions, and eight passes defended.
