Speaking on the Impaulsive podcast, Jake said: “After this, I want to go to the NFL. Legitimately, just play safety and put people down. I swear to God.

When asked which team he would like to play for, the Ohio native replied, “The Browns.” Did you ever think I'd play for the Cleveland Browns? That would be crazy.
