Jenkins won't return to Sunday's game against the Colts due to a hamstring injury.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins has played in just six games this season, recording 11 tackles. The fifth-year pro only played more than 15 defensive snaps twice in those games, so he doesn't leave many defensive snaps in his absence.

Jenkins (concussion) won't carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins started the week not practicing but was able to progress to a full participant Saturday. The 25-year-old has been held out with the concussion since Week 13, and should help bolster the Texans linebacker depth Monday.

Jenkins (concussion) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins has not practiced since suffering the concussion in Week 13 and has no real timetable for his return. Dylan Cole and Brian Peters should serve as reserve inside linebackers for the Texans on Sunday.

Jenkins (concussion) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins remains subject to the league's concussion protocol after suffering the head injury during last week's game against the Titans. The reserve linebacker's absence won't have much of an impact on the Texans' defense, as he's logged just 11 tackles in five games with Houston this season.

Jenkins (hand) was a full practice participant Wednesday and is in line to play Sunday against the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins is set to make both his season and Texans debut Sunday. The 25-year-old played the last four seasons in Miami, providing a 110-tackle season in 2014. He's on the Texans' depth chart as a reserve linebacker, but their linebacker corps is littered with injury, meaning Jenkins could be utilized defensively earlier than expected.

Jenkins (hand) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins just signed with the Texans on Wednesday, but he'll have to wait to make any serious contributions. Still, he slots in as a reserve linebacker, and it will be difficult to be fantasy relevant even when he's healthy.

Jenkins has hand injury and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis

The Texans signed Jenkins to a contract Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
With Dylan Cole (hamstring) expected to miss multiple weeks and Brian Cushing (suspension) sidelined for five more games, the Texans brought Jenkins aboard to bolster their depth at middle linebacker. Jenkins, who hasn't appeared in any games in 2017, saw action in nine contests last season with Miami, logging 29 tackles. He'll assume the roster spot of Marcus Burley, who was released in a corresponding move.
