Across more than 70 appearances in Champions Cup and URC rugby, Jenkins has built a profile defined by consistent, high-volume defensive output — averaging nearly seven tackles per match across over 4 000 minutes of action. He contributes steadily with ball in hand on every outing, and his peak performances, topping 14 carries and 19 tackles in a single game, signal the ceiling of a lock who can dominate the collisions at both ends. The try return adds a threat beyond the breakdown, rounding out the profile of a reliable, multi-dimensional forward.
Born on 2 December 1995, Jason is 30 years old, stands 203cm (6′8″) tall and weighs 127kg. Jason has been capped by South Africa at international level.
