Jenn has already established many deep connections on her televised journey to find love.

Jenn admitted, for example, that she's "falling for" Sam McKinney, and she also acknowledged Devin Strader "could very much be" her "future fiance."

Jenn assigned superlatives to a several of her remaining The Bachelorette bachelors during the August 1 episode of "The Viall Files" podcast, which is hosted by Season 21 The Bachelor star Nick Viall.

When asked to clarify whom she felt most connected to by the end of Episode 4, Jenn replied, "I'd probably say Devin after our one-on-one date."

Jenn and Devin enjoyed a one-on-one date on Episode 4 in which they participated in a spiritual ritual with the Maori people in New Zealand. Devin shared stories about his upbringing, how he'd love to have kids one day, and how his hardworking and loving mother has always been his rock.

Jenn explained of the 28-year-old freight company owner from Houston, TX, "It's very attractive that we could have that emotional connection and bond on a lot of things."

"He was able to empathize with me and relate to me," she elaborated, "and it was nice to have that depth in a conversation with him."

Jenn also named Devin "the smartest" man of all her bachelors.

When asked what "engaged life" might look like with Devin, Jenn explained, "We'd be laughing a lot. We'd maybe be living in California. His dad lives there... We'd be hanging out, laughing a lot, and there would be dogs involved."

Jenn also said Devin would continue "trucking" in California.

Many The Bachelorette fans have applauded Devin for speaking his mind and taking advantage of solo moments with Jenn and prioritizing her.

Devin, however, has been the center of drama all season long on The Bachelorette. He has feuded with Sam M., Aaron Erb and Thomas Nguyen, who all thought Devin was selfish and arrogant.

The Bachelor alums Rachel Recchia and Ben Higgins recently took jabs at Devin on "The Ben & Ashley I: Almost Famous Podcast."

Ben admitted, "I don't think he's the right one for Jenn."

And Rachel said Devin reminds her of her ex-fiance Tino Franco who had cheated on her.

"[Devin] is giving me the ick," Rachel said.

"I think there's something about Devin that really throws up red flags for me because he reminds me a lot of Tino and this, like, winner mindset and this, 'That's my wife.' Like, this is Week 2! It's giving the same sort of vibe for me."

Rachel said she believes Devin's self-confidence is "what's really getting under the guys' skin," and she added, "I think, at this point, I'm over both Thomas and Devin."

Speaking of "the ick," Jenn told Nick that she thought Aaron's pearl necklace was "an interesting choice."

When sizing up her other suitors, Jenn said Jonathon Johnson was the most empathetic, Sam M. had the shortest temper, John Mitchell was "a sweet teddy bear," and Jeremy Simon was the funniest guy in her cast.

"I could not stop laughing with him," Jenn said of Jeremy.

Also during Jenn's podcast appearance, she shared that she "loves chest hair" on a man, even if people accuse her of being "a weirdo" for that.
