He qualified for the 2015 U.S. Open where he shot 74-80 to miss the cut.[1]

At the 2016 Ellie Mae Classic, Jäger shot a 58 in the first round and followed it up with rounds of 65-64-63 to claim his first Web.com Tour victory. He set the 72-hole aggregate record with his 250[2] and tied the to-par record, at 30 under par,[3] and won by 7 strokes over Rhein Gibson. He also set the 36-hole and 54-hole records.[4] Despite the win, Jäger finished 28th on the regular season money list, three spots short of a guaranteed PGA Tour card.

In 2017, Jäger won twice on the Web.com Tour, finishing fifth on the regular-season money list and earning a PGA Tour card.

In May 2018, ranked 161st in the FedEx Cup and having failed to qualify for The Players Championship, Jäger played in and won the Web.com Tour's Knoxville Open, his fourth victory on that tour. After failing to finish in either the top 125 of the FedEx Cup or the Web.com Tour's top 25, Jäger regained his PGA Tour card through the Web.com Tour Finals.[5]
