Jenkins signed a one-year, $2.1 million extension with the Ravens on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 36-year-old defensive tackle was in line to be an unrestricted free agent following the 2025 season, but he's now set to remain in Baltimore. Jenkins has appeared in 16 games this season, recording 36 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and one pass defensed. Now under contract through 2026, he's expected to remain the Ravens' top nose tackle for the foreseeable future.

Jenkins (illness) is active for Sunday night's game against the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins seems to have recovered from the illness that caused him to miss consecutive practices to end Week 16. The nose tackle should be ready to rock for Sunday night's primetime contest. The 36-year-old has yet to miss a game this season, coming into Sunday night with 34 tackles (15 solo), including 1.0 sacks and two forced fumbles through 14 games.

Jenkins (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins missed consecutive practices to end the week with an illness he picked up Thursday. The immune system is likely the only thing limiting the defensive tackle's playing chances, and if he can recover by Sunday night, he should suit up against the Patriots. If the illness persists, Aeneas Peebles and CJ Okoye will likely see an increased defensive snap share in primetime.

Jenkins (illness) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins was a new addition to Thursday's injury report. If the nose tackle can log practice participation Friday he should be all set to dodge an injury designation for Sunday's game. Even if the starter cannot practice Friday, as long as he can shake off the illness before Sunday's primetime matchup with the Patriots, he will likely play.

The Ravens signed Jenkins to a one-year contract Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins is a veteran of 13 NFL campaigns who played the previous two years with Las Vegas. He logged a career-high 581 defensive snaps while starting all 17 regular-season games with the Raiders last year, totaling 46 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and two defensed passes. Baltimore is set up front with Nnamdi Madubuike, Travis Jones and Broderick Washington, so Jenkins will likely work in a rotational role with his new squad.

Jenkins finished 2024 with 46 tackles (13 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass breakups across 17 games with Las Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins, now 35 years old, started all 17 games for the Raiders for the second straight season. Jenkins' best ability has been his availability in recent seasons after struggling mightily to stay healthy for much of the prior six campaigns. Jenkins doesn't do anything special inside on the defensive line, but he's big and can clog space at 6-foot-3 and 327 pounds. Jenkins is scheduled to become a free agent in March. He'll likely again have to settle for a one-year contract.

Jenkins re-signed with the Raiders on Sunday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins logged career highs in both tackles (61) and passes defended (four) during his first season with the Raiders last year. The 359-pound defensive tackle spent three of the previous four seasons with the Dolphins, and he was reportedly hosted for a visit by the team last week, per Jackson. However, Jenkins ultimately will head back to the Raiders on a one-year deal worth $3.25 million, according to Amber Wilson of ESPN. Jenkins has played for seven different teams during his 12-year career, and he will enter his age-35 season in 2024.

The Raiders signed Jenkins on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins is now slated to compete for snaps on the Raiders' defensive line throughout the 2023 campaign, after he had spent the last two years as a member of the Dolphins. Across 17 contests suited up for a season ago, the 33-year-old amassed 21 tackles in that span.

The Dolphins re-signed Jenkins on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins appeared in seven games with Miami as a reserve interior defensive lineman. The veteran started two of those contests and ended the 2021 campaign with 16 total tackles.

Jenkins was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Jenkins' return will bolster the Dolphins' defensive line depth ahead of their game with the Patriots on Sunday.
