Wisconsin fullback John Chenal will be getting an NFL chance this summer. The Grantsburg native is headed to New York to participate in rookie camp with the New York Jets.
As a Badger, Chenal had multiple memorable moments including a touchdown in the 2021 Las Vegas Bowl win over Arizona State.
Chenal finished his Wisconsin career with 5 total touchdowns on the ground and a number of highlight blocks for exceptional Badger running backs. His brother Leo is headed to the Kansas City Chiefs after being selected in the third round of the 2022 NFL draft. There are officially two Chenal’s headed to NFL camps this summer.
