rounds out the PRzIL 2026 WR rankings and comes in at #50 overall and as WR18 in this stacked initial Big Board. The 5’9, 160 lber. is also a promising track competitor and uses that speed well on the gridiron, where his strengths lie in his top end speed, twitch after the catch, and ability to pack a punch at the point of attack, which also serves him well defensively as a CB. Jenkins has noticeable acceleration out of his stance and once the ball gets in his hands, and he’s as tough and competitive as anyone on this list and is more than willing to go over the middle and reel in catches through oncoming contact from safeties and LBs. However, he’s generally the hammer as opposed to the nail, and Jenkins was a consistent and big-time playmaker on the non-varsity ranks of the Huskies. What a strong and talented way to round out the loaded WR rankings from the Illinois 2026 class. This dude can play!
