    Florida cornerback Janoris Jenkins has decided to return to the Gators for his senior season.

    Jenkins, a three-year starter projected to be a first-round NFL draft pick, has eight career interceptions. He had three this past season, and was a first-team, All-SEC selection by The Associated Press. He missed the Outback Bowl following shoulder surgery.

    Consideration of the recovery time following surgery possibly affecting his NFL draft preparations led Jenkins to reconsider turning pro, sources told ESPN's Joe Schad. Jenkins had told teammates and multiple former coaches that he would enter the draft.

    Jenkins was rated as the No. 2 cornerback in the draft, and the No. 11 player overall, by ESPN draft expert Todd McShay.
