So what are people basing Jenkins's 2025 productivity on other than pure hope he gets more stats than he did last year?

Murphy went from 20 combined tackles, 3.0 sacks, and 15 total pressures his rookie year (304 defensive snaps) to 20 combined tackles, 0 sacks, and 20 total pressures his sophomore year (353 defensive snaps).

Bringing up Murphy because players not making the jump or even performing worse their 2nd season definitely happens.

And I was comparing with Williams because Williams led the league in pressures for IDL, so I wanted to show how Jenkins compared to the top guy.
I get that Jenkins was a rookie, was playing hurt some, yada yada yada.
At the end of the day, I'm more worried about 2025 performance and less worried about how he'll be in 3-4 years as a long-term guy.

I'm basing my faith in his improvement off of what I perceive to be his strong work ethic and drive to become a great player in his father's footsteps.
