Jenkins (born July 17, 1987) is an American former professional rodeo cowboy who specialized in bull riding.
Jenkins is one of only four bull riders in history (the other three being Ted Nuce, Ty Murray and Sage Kimzey) to win both the PBR World Finals and the National Finals Rodeo (NFR).
[1] Jenkins was born on July 17, 1987, on his father's ranch in Strafford, Missouri.
[7] Jenkins competed the first few years of his professional career with a cowboy hat.
After fracturing his C1 vertebra at the 2015 Built Ford Tough Series event in Nampa, Idaho, Jenkins made the decision to retire from bull riding in the summer of that year, thus missing his 11th consecutive trip to the PBR World Finals (which he had qualified for).
