Eagles DT Cullen Jenkins (knee) returned to a full practice Saturday and is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Saints. Jenkins hyperextended his knee in the Eagles' Week 8 loss to the Falcons, but put together full practices Friday and Saturday and is expected to be active, barring any setbacks. Jenkins will start opposite first-round rookie Fletcher Cox, who was elevated to the starting lineup earlier this week.

The Eagles are giving DT Cullen Jenkins camp and preseason reps at defensive end this summer. "He gives you a little bit in the run game," coach Andy Reid said. "Just a big body, and he is athletic enough where he can still pass rush from out there." Jenkins' primary position will remain three-technique tackle in base packages, but he's shown capable of rushing the passer from the perimeter on occasion. Jenkins' versatility could end up saving the Eagles a roster spot.

Eagles DT Cullen Jenkins says he's still signed through 2015 following the restructure of his contract. Jenkins also said he wants to retire an Eagle. "I want to finish my career as an Eagle. That's definitely something we took into consideration." If Jenkins' deal is still structured anything like it was before Tuesday, it's likely his contract includes minimal guarantees beyond 2012.

Eagles agreed to a restrcutred contract with DT Cullen Jenkins. Details of the restructure aren't yet available, but Jenkins was due a $5 million roster on March 13. That was on top of a $2.75 million 2012 base salary, which would have given Jenkins a prohibitive 2012 cap number of $7.75 million. Essentially playing on a one-year deal last season since the five-year, $30 million pact he signed in July was not guaranteed beyond 2012 and included no signing bonus, Jenkins performed well, notching 40 tackles and 5.5 sacks.

Eagles GM Howie Roseman was noncommittal when asked about the future of DT Cullen Jenkins in Roseman's year-ending press conference. Beat writer Les Bowen believes the Eagles would be foolish to let Jenkins go after he played hard all season on a struggling team, but it's not out of the question that Philly viewed Jenkins as a one-year rental all along. Cutting Jenkins in year two of his supposed $30 million contract would immediately save $7.75 million under the cap. He's due a $5M roster bonus on March 13.

Eagles DT Cullen Jenkins is due a $5 million roster bonus on March 13. The Eagles would take no salary cap hit if they cut ties with Jenkins because his original, five-year, $30 million deal included no signing bonus. Cutting Jenkins would save $7.75 million in cap space. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel suggests that the Packers might have interest in bringing Jenkins back if that occurs. He finished the 2011 season with 40 tackles and 5.5 sacks.

Eagles DT Cullen Jenkins suffered a strained groin in Philadelphia's Week 14 win over the Dolphins. He should be considered day-to-day. Part of the Eagles' big free agent haul, Jenkins has more-or-less produced as expected, notching 34 tackles and six sacks in 13 games. Due a $5 million roster bonus this offseason, it's possible Jenkins will be let go, but he'll more than likely be back with the Eagles in 2012.

Eagles signed DE Cullen Jenkins to a five-year, $25 million contract. So much for Jenkins' market drying up. Thought to be seeking top dollar this summer, he'll get it from a team that's gearing up for a serious run at the Super Bowl. Jenkins is on the wrong side of 30, and missed five games as a member of the Packers last season. There's no doubt he can still get after the passer, however, and he should be a big part of what is now a totally revamped Eagles defense.

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel suggests that the "market may be drying up" for free agent DE Cullen Jenkins. The Cowboys are out of the mix after signing Kenyon Coleman and Marcus Spears, and the same can probably be said for the Redskins after the Stephen Bowen move. There have been loose reports linking Jenkins to New Orleans, but he wouldn't fill a big need there. With Jenkins' price tag almost certainly coming down, perhaps the Packers will reconsider the idea of re-signing him.

According to NFL Network's Mike Lombardi, the Cowboys are expected to set their sights on free agent DE Cullen Jenkins if they lose out in the bidding on Nnamdi Asomugha. Multiple reports suggest the Cowboys are serious players in the Asomugha race, but our expectation is that he will ultimately sign with the Jets. Simply put, Asomugha wants to play in New York. Dallas already lost Stephen Bowen to a division rival, and Jason Hatcher is on the Broncos' radar. They need defensive end help badly, and Jenkins is a rare play-making "five technique."
