    Dude isn’t an actor. He was just an actual employee named Jake who did a commercial that got big.

      Jake being bad at acting could have been a shtick

      Like “Jake you’re famous now! We need you to do commercials!” Jake “But I can’t act!”

      libertery mutual, a company that is referenced in the meme, even does this with a real actor that acts like he can’t act.

      Jake from state farm was supposed to be a normal dude. Him not being an actor probably makes his delivery that much better

      Replacing Jake with a professional actor seems wrong. It’s no longer “Jake”
