College and pro scrimmages abound this weekend

Good morning. Your Washington State Cougars held their first scrimmage of training camp on Saturday, as they prepare to take on the Idaho Vandals just 20 days from today. And for a change, transfer quarterback Cam Ward wasn’t the star of the show. Those honors went to freshman running back Jaylen Jenkins. Jenkins tore through the Cougar defense to the tune of 126 yards and a touchdown on just nine carries. Not a bad average! As Colton Clark reported, the freshman Texan broke several explosive plays, with four runs covering 20 or more yards. Ward is also excited about Jenkins’ potential.
