According to the Palm Beach Post, a UF spokesperson confirmed that starting cornerback Janoris Jenkins will miss the Outback Bowl due to injury. Jenkins was suffering from a right shoulder issue and underwent surgery earlier this month to repair the damage.
Jenkins is viewed as a potential first-round pick in the April NFL draft and has been seen as a player who will likely leave a year of collegiate eligibility on the table to make the move to the next level. The injury, some have surmised, all but guarantees he will leave Gainesville a year early.
In addition to Jenkins, offensive lineman Maurice Hurt (right knee) and defensive tackles Terron Sanders (right shoulder) and Lawrence Marsh (right hip) underwent surgery this month and will miss the bowl game.
