Pitt Football Commit Ascending This Off-Season

Through camp settings this off-season, Jennings has been working mostly as a linebacker. Through that, most networks have switched his position fit from safety to linebacker.

On April 27, while attending an Under Armour Camp in Michigan, Jennings competed at the linebacker position, impressing that day.

Allen Trieu of 247Sports singled out Jennings as one of the top players at the position at the invite-only camp.

More recently, on Saturday, May 10, Jennings posted a new personal record in the 100 meters.

The Pittsburgh commitment stated that he clocked a 11.02, which is a solid time at his new listed weight of 215 pounds.

The Panthers have done a great job of developing long, rangy, hybrid athletes like Rasheem Biles - who was also a safety/linebacker hybrid coming out of the Midwest as a prospect - into playmakers at the linebacker position.

Perhaps Jennings will be the next success story at the linebacker position in Pittsburgh.

Jennings is set to take an official visit in Pittsburgh on June 5-7.
