Kris Jenkins exhibits a robust and commanding presence on the defensive line, primarily thriving in run-stopping scenarios. His size and strength allow him to hold his position against double teams, making him a valuable asset in a 3-4 scheme as a nose tackle or as a 4-3 defensive tackle. Jenkins' ability to disrupt the running game and push the pocket is notable. However, his pass-rushing skills need refinement, and he may struggle in schemes requiring extensive pass coverage responsibilities.
