Javon Kinlaw medical status deserves a review going into the NFL draft. In 2018, the University of South Carolina product suffered a hip laberal tear that required surgery. This injury should be behind him which was proven by his fantastic 2019 season. Kinlaw produced 6 sacks and 35 tackles but missed the Senior Bowl with knee tendinitis which prevented him from performing at the NFL combine. Knee tendinitis is usually not a major issue, but it is something that can linger however. The former Gamecock is likely a first round pick but his tendinitis is something to watch going forward.
