JaQuae Jackson entered Week 5 as Rutgers’ second-leading receiver. He’s adding to his tally against Wagner, and he’s doing so in high-flying fashion.
On one 1st-and-10 play, Jackson ran a route straight at and past his defender on the outside. He beat his man by a couple of steps and Gavin Wimsatt put a beautiful ball out in front of Jackson.
The throw was a bit beyond Jackson, but the wide receiver laid out with full extension. He was able to secure the catch and reel it in with what turned out to be a ridiculously picture-perfect grab:

With the first half winding down, Jackson is already up to 67 yards on 3 catches for the Scarlet Knights. He entered the game with 8 catches for 136 yards but is still looking for his first touchdown of the season.
