Egeris played football during his youth for BK Søllerød-Vedbæk, until he moved to Lyngby in December 2006.[1] He spent 2 years in the Lyngby youth setup.
Egeris got his debut on 20 September 2009, coming on as a substitute against Vejle Boldklub. He'd go on to make league appearances in his debut season in the 1st Division and was given a one-year contract extension in December 2009.[2] Playing 22 games in his first season, Egeris helped Lyngby win promotion to the Danish Superliga, with a second place league finish.
In the second game of the 2010–11 season, Egeris was injured with damage to his ankle in a match with AC Horsens.[3] He would be out injured until November, making an unexpected return filling in for Mathias Tauber who pulled out last minute because of illness, losing to Randers FC in a 3–0 defeat in the Danish Cup. He received a hostile reaction from the Lyngby supporters due to his contractual situation, choosing to follow the recent trend of former Lyngby players to leave on a free transfer to join neighboring rivals F.C. Nordsjælland, when his contract was set to expire in the winter.[4]
Jacob Egeris joined FCN in January 2011, signing a three-year contract.[5] Shortly after joining, Egeris re-injured himself in training which kept him out for the rest of the 2010–11 season.[6] On 31 August 2011, it was confirmed by Egeris' agent that he was considering a move to Viborg after failing to break into the F.C. Nordsjælland squad due to injury set backs, after spending a year and a half with the Farum club.[7] He eventually turned down a loan move to The Greens, deciding to stay with FCN to try and break into the first team.[8]
On 24 November 2011, Egeris made his first team debut as a substitute in the 90th minute, in a 2–0 loss to F.C. Copenhagen, in the Danish Cup quarter finals. He would go on to make his league debut for the club a week later, as an 81st-minute substitute for Patrick Mtiliga, in a 0–0 draw with F.C. Midtjylland.
After two years in Norway, joining HamKam in July 2017,[9] Egeris returned to Denmark in February 2020 and signed with Nykøbing FC.[10]
On 30 January 2023, Egeris joined Danish 2nd Division club B.93.[11]
