In 2025, he assisted a Jaguars' defense that finished with the league's No. 1 run defense, allowing just 85.6 rush yards per game, and also ranked eighth in the NFL in scoring defense (19.8 ppg). Jacksonville became the first team in NFL history to produced 30+ takeaways after having 10-or-less the season prior. The defense finished with the most passes defensed (107) and second-most interceptions (22) in the league, while LB Devin Lloyd received Pro Bowl and All Pro honors after leading all linebackers with five interceptions. S Antonio Johnson matched Lloyd's interception total for a share of the second most in the league while DE Josh Hines-Allen tied for fourth in the NFL with 80 quarterback pressures.
In 2024, Jeberaeel helped DE Travon Walker set career highs in tackles (61), tackles for loss (13), sacks (10.5) and forced fumbles (two). Walker's 10.5 sacks were tied-eighth in the AFC in 2024.

Atlanta's defense also tied for the second-most forced fumbles in the NFL (18) and produced 42.0 sacks, tied for the sixth-most sacks in a single-season in franchise history.
In 2022, Jeberaeel assisted with an offensive line that produced the third-ranked rushing attack in the NFL (159.9 yards per game) and the second-most rushing yards in franchise history (2,718).
