Impact Jean Jacques released Cavan Sullivan for Philadelphia's second goal shortly after halftime, registering his first assist of the MLS campaign.

JULY 21 • Associated Press

Subbed off on Wednesday Jacques had seven tackles (three won), one clearance and one interception in Wednesday's 4-2 loss versus Morocco.

JUNE 25 • ROTOWIRE

Completes 44 passes Jean Jacques recorded one interception, one clearance and two tackles in Friday's 3-0 loss to Brazil.

Impact Jean Jacques played the full 90 minutes Friday but was unable to get much going against Brazil, as he earned no stats on the attacking side of the ball. He would complete 44 of his passes, second best on the team, although that is expected from a midfielder. He will now look for a better effort in the group stage finale, although the squad could rotate after their elimination.

JUNE 19 • ROTOWIRE

Wins eight duels versus Scotland Jean Jacques generated one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 loss versus Scotland.

Impact Jean Jacques operated as one of his side's two central midfielders alongside Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, with most of his production coming from passing and one-on-one play during the defeat. The Philadelphia Union man won a team-high eight duels and three tackles, yet he fell short of making a decisive impact. Following Haiti's decent overall performance Saturday, he'll hope to get more opportunities for the remainder of the tournament.

JUNE 13 • ROTOWIRE

Returns Saturday Jean Jacques recorded six passes in Saturday's 0-0 draw against D.C. United.

Impact Jean Jacques returned to the pitch Saturday after missing the last match through injury. He was, however, unfit to start, having made the previous six starts prior to his injury, recording a goal with nine tackles and eight interceptions in seven games.

APRIL 19 • ROTOWIRE

Option for play again Jean Jacques (knee) has been back in training and is looking to be an option for Saturday's match against D.C. United, according to Joe Tansey of Bleacher Report.

Impact Jean Jacques missed the last match with a knee injury but will quickly end the absence, as he is already training and deemed "fine." This is huge news for the club, as up until the injury, he had yet to miss a start. That said, he will look to earn that spot back Saturday, that is, if he is fit enough to do so.

APRIL 16 • ROTOWIRE

Out against CF Montreal Jean Jacques (knee) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against CF Montreal.

Impact Jean Jacques is unavailable for Saturday's clash due to a knee issue that remains under evaluation. The midfielder had started all matches this season, so his absence could be a notable blow in midfield, with Jesus Bueno starting in his place.

APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable with knee concern Jean Jacques is listed as questionable for Saturday's match against Montreal with a knee injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Jean Jacques is a new addition to Philadelphia's report this matchday, making this a fresh knee concern heading into the weekend. This will be something to monitor, as the midfield is an everyday starter. If fit, he should remain in his starting role, with Jesus Beuno as a likely replacement if out.

APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE

First shot on target produces goal Jacques scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and four crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Charlotte FC.
