Jake played his last 3 seasons with the Washington Redskins and would probably be pissed that you used the PC name of Washington Football Team! Go DAWGS and Hail to the Redskins!

Jake Scott rode his motorcycle over the Georgia coliseum that my Granddaddy helped build. First of Georgia’s 3 Super Bowl MVPs. RIP Jake!! May God bless your family.

LOVED this crazy SOB. No need to repeat the motorcycle story, legendary as it was, but as a straight-up football player, the irony is that he was as fundamentally sound as any player in the history of the game. Something Jake did, which ALL punt/kick returners could learn from: without fail, his first move was STRAIGHT AHEAD, UP FIELD!
Then, if he saw a move to make, a cut, he'd make it and be gone. He literally NEVER ran wide first. The "dancers" in the return game could gain a lot watching this guy at work.
A delightful fool off the field, he was a 'dialed-in' surgeon on the field.
