The 29-year-old forward has suffered a broken thumb and will have to go under the knife. He should be on the sidelines for a minimum period of four weeks.
Jenner had had some really good times since the start of the 2022-23 season. He ranks second in scoring for the Blue Jackets, behind a certain Johnny Gaudreau.
In 30 games, the Ontarian has hit the target 11 times and provided as many assists for 22 points.
The Ohio organization has also recalled center Josh Dunne from the Cleveland Monsters, its American League school club. He has five goals and six assists for 11 points in 24 games on the development circuit this year.
Dunne played six games for the Blue Jackets during the 2020-21 season, but is still looking for his first National Hockey League point.
The Columbus club will be in action on Monday evening when the Dallas Stars will be at Nationwide Arena.
