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). G Chris Lindstrom was named Second-Team All-Pro.

From 2018-20, Jeberaeel served as the offensive line coach at Abilene Christian University.
