College career
Jenkins attended Ohio State University from 2000-2003, catching 161 passes for 2,898 yards and 16 touchdowns. His 2,898 yards were a school record, and his 161 receptions were the third highest total in school history.
Pro career
2005 Season
With the slump and eventual release of wide receiver Peerless Price, the Falcons turned to Jenkins to start. Although Falcons quarterback Michael Vick turned to him more often, Michael Jenkins was not a gigantic factor in the Falcons' less-than-stellar offense for the 2005 season. Jenkins played in 14 games and started 12 of them after Price left for the Dallas Cowboys. Michael Jenkins made his first career start versus the Philadelphia Eagles, leading the team with three grabs for 80 yards. Almost anything could be better than the previous season, though, so Michael Jenkins actually avoided the dreaded "sophomore slump". He improved, catching 38 passes for 506 yards on the season. He also caught three touchdowns, the first of which was against the ailing Buffalo Bills.
