Jenkins was the Bears’ second round pick, Ryan Pace traded up to select him 39th overall out of Oklahoma State.

He worked with the team during rookie camp but very early in training camp was out with a mysterious back injury until the team finally placed him on injured reserve and announced he would have back surgery on Aug.
