Powerhouse RB Deshon Jenkins: The 235-Lb. Force Bowling Green Is Betting On
Deshon Jenkins, a 5-10, 235-pound running back from Bishop Verot High School in Fort Myers, FL, brings a rare combination of power and durability to the Bowling Green Falcons as a Class of 2026 prospect committed in June 2025[1][2]. His differentiator is his heavyweight frame at a compact height, allowing him to absorb contact and finish runs with intensity that goes beyond standard speed metrics[1]. While specific game stats aren't publicly aggregated yet, his physical profile suggests a 'bull' runner who can control the line of scrimmage, making him an ideal fit for teams needing a physical, between-the-tackles presence rather than just a scat-back[1]. With no reported injury history and a commitment driven by his raw power, Jenkins is a high-upside prospect for coaches seeking a tough, reliable ground-game anchor.
