Jeremy Gibson is a 5-foot-9, 189-pound running back from Reserve, Louisiana. According to 247Sports Composite, he is ranked No. 43 at his position, and No. 41 in the state of Louisiana, as well as No. 789 overall.

In Gibson, the Hogs look to add a piece that can keep their fearsome ground attack rolling, and they plucked him right out of LSU Tiger territory, to boot.
