The Michigan Wolverines lost two of their best players in the 2024 NFL Draft class: Junior Colson and Zak Zinter. Both players are expected to select early in the draft. Other offensive weapons were also lost to the transfer portal. It appears that one more high-profile player is on Michigan’s exit list.

What Does Kris Jenkins Mean To The Michigan Wolverines

Kris Jenkins played a crucial role in the formidable Michigan defense that dominated the Ohio State Buckeyes in three consecutive matchups.

Now, as he transitions to the NFL, where he’s being viewed as a possible first-round selection, both he and those in his circle clearly have confidence in his readiness for the professional ranks. It remains to be seen how the National Champion will fare in this new chapter of his career, and we hope he achieves success in what is hopefully a lengthy and prosperous professional journey.
