He went on loan at Accrington Stanley in March 2015 but failed to make an appearance for Stanley through injury.[1] He made his professional debut on 11 August 2015 in a 2–1 League Cup defeat against Bury.[2] On 12 November 2015, Jennings joined National League side Cheltenham Town on an initial one-month loan deal.[3]

On 15 February 2016, Jennings joined National League side Grimsby Town on loan until the end of the season.[4] Jennings was part of the team that eventually went on to beat Forest Green Rovers 3–1 in the 2016 National League play-off Final at Wembley, seeing Grimsby promoted to League Two after a six-year absence from the Football League.[5][6]

In September 2016 Jennings joined National League North side AFC Fylde,[7] but by December he had joined local league rivals Curzon Ashton. On 15 June 2017 he penned a one-year deal with Alfreton Town. During his time at Alfreton he received a call up for England C as back up but never made an appearance .[8]
