On his career, Jorgensen has 109 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, and a forced fumble

Unfortunately, Jorgensen is no stranger to season-ending injuries. Jorgensen received a medical hardship year after suffering a season-ending injury against Boise State in what would have been his senior year last season. This surgery will be Jorgensen's third knee surgery since suiting up for BYU. He has also undergone three shoulder surgeries during his time as a Cougar.

We wish Jorgensen a quick recovery and good luck in his future endeavors.
