Justin Jenks '18 Recruiting Profile

Football has always given me a sense of responsibility and teamwork. Every time I dress out for practice or put on my uniform for a game, I do so knowing that I have a responsibility to my teammates, my coaches and myself. I take great pride in how I play and prepare for the game. My goal is to play on a college team where that mentality is encouraged and shared by everyone; and at a school where I can pursue a professional career, whether that is football or physical therapy.

I work hard so I can be the best football player possible. I’m early for practice and I stay late. I keep myself in shape mentally, physically and spiritually. I was raised by a single mom who instilled in me that nothing is handed to anyone. Those who succeed are the ones who work hard and make sacrifices.

I have been blessed to have good coaches throughout my high school career, who call me "coachable" and have relied on me to play many different positions.  I want to bring that to a college that needs that kind of player.
