Jenkins seems to be reconsidering his decision after he was given a top-100 NFL Draft grade. Prior to being given that grade, Jenkins has stated that he hadn’t given much consideration to going pro.
Jenkins has been a stalwart for the Wolverines this season, amassing 54 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, and two sacks. He finished the season as an All-Big Ten honorable mention.
Jenkins is on a deadline, as he must declare for the Draft by Jan. 16. We’ll see if Jenkins will stick with his original decision and return to the Wolverines.
