Jenkins, a second-round pick by the Bears in 2021, has started 38 games over four NFL seasons. In 2024, he logged a career-high 14 starts, playing exclusively at left guard with 738 snaps. However, Jenkins also brings versatility, having played 852 combined snaps at right guard during the 2022 and 2023 seasons.”

Odighizuwa tallied a career-high 4.5 sacks while playing 78% of the Cowboys’ defensive snaps during the 2024 season. He added 47 tackles (five for a loss), a pass defensed, and a forced fumble.”
