Cam Jessee, Eastern Kentucky LB: the 2026 season story
Cam Jessee is a sophomore linebacker for Eastern Kentucky (UAC). He ranks 127th of 930 linebackers in Division I by the Player Index, which judges every linebacker on the measures that matter at the position, adjusted for the opponents he faced.
Scouting report
Why it matters. Knowing the one or two things a player does best, and where he is ordinary, says more than any single total. Cam Jessee's strongest measure is tackles for loss per game at 0.69, 70th of 459 (the average is 0.40). His weakest is interceptions per game at 0.00, 106th of 459 (the average is 0.03).
Season production
Why it matters. Totals reward staying healthy and getting the ball; per-game numbers show how much he really carries each week. His tackles per game, 5.8, ranks 157th among 459 ranked linebackers.
Against every linebacker
Why it matters. Splitting the measures into how much, how well and how many big plays shows what kind of linebacker he is. Among ranked linebackers he sits, on average, in the 66th percentile for volume and 63rd for impact.
The season, game by game
Why it matters. A season average can hide a player who is great one week and absent the next; game by game shows how dependable he is. Over 10 games, Cam Jessee's best came in week 7 at Tennessee Tech and his quietest in week 6 against West Georgia.
Where he does his damage
Why it matters. Where and how a player makes his plays shows how his team uses him and what a defense has to take away.
National and conference
Why it matters. A national rank shows how a player stacks up beyond his own league, where the competition can be very different. Cam Jessee is 25th of 471 FCS linebackers and 2nd of 33 in the UAC. Next up nationally is Cameron Anderson of West Florida, 0.03 ahead on the index.
Linebackers like him
Why it matters. Comparing a player with his closest statistical matches puts his season in context beyond the rankings. His closest match this season is Amare Campbell of Tennessee.
