Jesus has been pegged to become a major player on the show ever since his impressive introduction in Season 6, and while he's been more involved as things have gone on, Season 9 is almost a do or die point with the character.

He's more important and more popular in the comics, and it's time to start giving him that billing. Luckily, with Rick and more pertinently Maggie on the way out, there is room for him to take the leap. Jesus should become the leader of the Hilltop after Maggie's departure, and should become one of the more central characters going forward.
