Illinois senior wide receiver A.J. Jenkins was once all talk.
There was talk of him transferring before his junior season. There was talk of his lofty goals prior to this season, saying he wanted, "1,000-plus yards, 10-plus touchdowns and around 80 catches. So, I'm ready to have a real big year this year."
Then, there was Jenkins' bold statement following his 148-yard performance in the season opener against Arkansas State that caught everyone's attention.
