Wesley Chapel's Jenkins out for now
**UPDATE** (12:25 a.m.)
Wesley Chapel quarterback Greg Jenkins was knocked out of a 24-17 loss to Zephyrhills with what is believed to be a separated right shoulder. Jenkins was at home just after midnight planning to visit a doctor later today.
Jenkins said he was told the injury could sideline him "two or three weeks." Instead of rushing immediately to a hospital, Jenkins stayed on the sideline throughout the game after he was knocked out in the first series. Zephyrhills senior Tyler Smith ran into Jenkins on a fierce tackle that knocked the Wesley Chapel star to an immediate halt. Jenkins stayed in for the next play, but fumbled and turned the ball over.
"It's hurting," Jenkins said by phone. "I can't move fast. I've got some Advil, so that helps."
