For the second consecutive season Corey Jensen emerged as a reliable option off the bench for North Queensland Toyota Cowboys head coach Paul Green.
Jensen originally missed selection for the Round 1 clash with Cronulla, but was called on to the interchange after Michael Morgan was forced to withdraw with injury.
The 24-year-old would go on to play 18 games for the season, including two starts – in Round 13 against Manly and Round 16 against South Sydney.
Jensen's best performance of the season came against the Rabbitohs in Round 11. Starting from the interchange, Jensen ran for a mammoth 173 metres, broke two tackles and chipped in 23 tackles in just 53 minutes.
The Bowen product will push for an increased role in 2019 as he enters the final year of a two-year contract extension.
