Across 13 appearances, Jager's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive contribution — averaging over five tackles per match and peaking at 12 in a single game, which is a substantial return for a prop. His carrying numbers are modest, reflecting the restricted but purposeful ball-in-hand role typical of a tighthead at this level. The consistency of his defensive presence across three competitions suggests a player trusted to do the unglamorous work that holds a forward pack together.
