The UCF Comeback: A Freshman Moment

Jenkins, who played in all 12 games last season, pinpointed the thrilling comeback win against UCF as a highlight. "That was the most intense game I've ever played in," he recalled. His interception and 72-yard scoop-and-score were pivotal in the Bears' victory, solidifying his place as a rising star on defense.

Why Baylor? An Easy Choice

Despite enticing offers from other programs, Jenkins' loyalty to Baylor never wavered. "This place right here is the spot for you," he declared, emphasizing the love and support he's felt from the Baylor community. The decision to stay was "easy" for the freshman All-American.

The Future: Bright Lights and Big Expectations

With a new offensive scheme in place and Dave Aranda's hands-on approach with the defense, Jenkins is optimistic about Baylor's prospects this season. "I feel like the defense is going to be even better this year," he stated.

Beyond football, Jenkins is embracing his newfound video game fame. He's eagerly anticipating seeing himself in the upcoming NCAA football game and even contemplating starting a Twitch channel.
