Jenkins recorded seven tackles (five solo) and an interception in just two appearances for New Orleans in 2019.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins was snagged off waivers by the Saints after the Giants cut him for using a slur on Twitter, and he appeared in two regular-season contests for New Orleans. He was solid in those contests, and he played an important role in the Saints' first-round playoff loss, recording eight tackles (three solo) and a forced fumble. He's under contract through 2021, though his $10.15M salary for 2020 is non-guaranteed, and the Saints could cleanly cut ties with him in the offseason. He has 23 career interceptions in eight NFL seasons (including five in 2019), and his proven track record may entice the organization to keep him around for the final year of his deal.

Jenkins produced five tackles (all solo) and an interception in the Saints' 42-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins snagged his first interception as a member of the Saints, picking off Kyle Allen in the end zone just inside the two-minute mark of the contest. He should provide some solid depth and veteran leadership in New Orleans, especially as the team heads into the postseason.

Jenkins (ankle) isn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old wasn't practicing due to the ankle injury before being waived by the Giants last week, but he's now apparently recovered from the injury. Jenkins provides quality depth at cornerback for New Orleans behind starters Marshon Lattimore and Eli Apple.

Jenkins (ankle) was claimed off waivers by the Saints, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins will not be eligible to play in the Saints' Monday night matchup with the Colts, but he will join the team for the rest of the season after being waived by the Giants last week. Jenkins figures to slot in somewhere behind starting cornerbacks Marshon Lattimore and Eli Apple and see action in multiple-defensive-back formations.

The Giants waived/injured Jenkins (ankle) on Friday, Michael Elsen of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins is nursing an ankle injury sustained during Monday's loss to the Eagles, the severity of which prevented him from practicing in any capacity this week. The Giants' decision to part ways with Jenkins stems from his inappropriate Twitter exchange with a fan earlier this week, which included the use of a slur. Coach Pat Shurmur said, "Obviously, what happened this week, and the refusal to acknowledge the inappropriate and offensive language, was the determining factor." Jenkins started 13 contests in New York this season, notching 54 tackles (45 solo), 14 defended passes and four interceptions.

Jenkins won't practice Wednesday as he receives treatment on his ankle, Paul Schwartz of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins cleared concussion protocol to suit up in this past Monday's loss to the Eagles, playing 99 percent of defensive snaps and recording six tackles. There's no indication that the 31-year-old is in danger of missing Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins, and his practice status for the rest of the week should shed more light on the severity.

Jenkins cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins is set to draw his usual start at cornerback across from Deandre Baker against the Bears on Sunday. With Sterling Shepard and Nate Solder also having managed to clear the league's protocol for head injuries, the Giants will benefit from the return of multiple starters Week 12.

Jenkins (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins remains in the league's concussion protocol, per Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post, but he's expected to receive full clearance from an independent neurologist prior to Sunday's tilt against the Bears. If Jenkins is indeed able to retake the field Week 12, he'll draw his usual start at cornerback.

Jenkins (concussion) participated in Monday's practice, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The bye week allowed Jenkins to progress through concussion protocol, although it's unsettled whether he's limited or at full speed. We may not know his true status until the Giants release their first injury report Wednesday, but Jenkins appears to have a good shot at playing Sunday against the Bears.

Coach Pat Shurmur believes Jenkins suffered a concussion during Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Jets, Art Stapleton of NorthJersey.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shurmur wasn't definitive in his diagnosis, but it sounds like Jenkins will be placed in concussion protocol. The Giants have a bye in Week 11, so he has two weeks two recover before a matchup against the Bears. Jenkins recorded four solo tackles and a pass breakup in this contest.
