On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 30th of 38 of the 38 full-backs in the Eliteserien. At 30 Jenssen is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Jenssen missed 3 games through injury (injury, yellow cards) out of roughly 30 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
