UNI RB Josh Jenkins: Explosive YPC Threat with Untapped Upside
Redshirt freshman Josh Jenkins electrifies as UNI Panthers' RB, boasting a 4.2 yards per carry career average (117 yards, 1 TD on 28 carries through 2023) rooted in his Iowa Class 5A-leading YPC and TDs as a Lincoln HS senior—pure speed from his track sprinting days shines through.[1][4] Durable in all 11 games last season with zero injury flags, his compact 6-0, 180-lb frame packs elusive intensity and big-play pop, making him a change-of-pace dynamo. Care? He's a FCS sleeper ready to erupt. Team fit? Perfect for squads craving versatile, high-motor backs who finish runs with grit.
