Expert Analysis
Jared Luginbill | Prep Redzone Scout
I really like Jenkins as a prospect. There’s a ton to like about his film, starting with his twitchiness. His ability to be explosive and play downhill is next level. In pursuit, his long speed is on full display as he tracks down the ball and covers a ton of ground. Quite simply, Jenkins flourishes in space. He has an uncanny ability to juke and avoid blockers, come downhill, and make plays. I think Jenkins has the athletic ability to absolutely fly up the rankings. I could see him as a Top 100 player after the 2026 season. What I’m looking to see is continued physical development and production. I want to see him continue to get bigger and stronger while retaining his speed and explosiveness. From a production standpoint, I want to see more plays behind the line of scrimmage — especially sacks and, more notably, tackles for loss. If Jenkins can accomplish these two things, I expect him to rise and really put himself on the Division I recruiting radar.
