Kris Jenkins projected as first-round NFL pick in new 2024 mock draft

It’s never too early to start discussing NFL Draft prospects, and it would appear the Michigan Wolverines have a pretty important one on their roster for the 2023 season.

In a recent 2024 NFL mock draft, ESPN draft expert Jordan Reid gave his early prediction for the first round of next year’s draft. In it, he included Michigan defensive tackle Kris Jenkins, whom he projected to go 22nd overall to the Los Angeles Chargers.

It’s no surprise to see Jenkins getting some early buzz as one of the draft’s top prospects, as he turned in a breakout season last year and likely would have been drafted had he opted to declare for the 2023 draft.
