Just watched a few highlight videos and Jenkins was definitely more of a “I’m not getting pushed out this gap” type of run stop DT but he at least showed flashes of power and bull rush. BJ Hill getting pushed out the starter spot to focus on getting sacks and starting this kid along Rankins seems like the best usage for him even if BJ is the better all around play year 1.


I really really value run stop DTs so i would not hate BJ losing snaps to a worse DT if Jenkins is the kid in the running
