WATCH: Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint Makes Crazy One-Handed Grab
With numbers like 6-foot-2, 195 pounds, 4.5 speed, and elite-level ball skills, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint's physical profile seems eerily similar to a certain University of Georgia wide receiver that is expected to be out the majority of the season in George Pickens.
Rosemy-Jacksaint's 2020 season came to an abrupt halt against Florida, when on his first career touchdown reception, he broke his ankle. He wasn't a full participant during spring practice for Georgia but was back to running routes on air. Now, a clip of him inside the facility this week has gone viral.
Take a look:
If Georgia is going to replace what was lost when Pickens went down, Rosemy-Jacksaint is going to be one of those players that will need to help fill a void.
At Dawgs Daily on SI.com, we have made the comparison between Rosemy-Jacksaint and Pickens even prior to Rosemy-Jacksaint's debut with the Dawgs:
"Yes, I'm talking about George Pickens. Two physically daunting prospects entering their freshman years of college. Pickens played at Hoover High School in Birmingham, a perennial powerhouse that plays one of the toughest schedules in high-school football.
Rosemy-Jacksaint played for St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Another perennial powerhouse that plays against some of the most elite football programs the nation has to offer and does so on national television rather often.
That's just the start of the comparison, however. The way both of these young men attack the ball in the air leaves quarterbacks with the confidence that they are never covered. No matter how tight the coverage from the exceptional corners they will face in the SEC, their length and leaping ability leave an opportunity for a big play at all times.
The SportsCenter level plays that Georgia fans have become accustomed to seeing from George Pickens are no stranger to the newcomer either."
