    The Seahawks designated Jenkins (hand) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jenkins has missed the Seahawks' last four games after likely sustaining a hand injury in Seattle's Week 6 loss to the 49ers.

    The Seahawks placed Jenkins on injured reserve Wednesday due to a hand injury, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Jenkins hasn't missed a defensive snap this season, even while wearing a club on his hand the last two games. However, it appears the injury has become severe enough that a multiweek absence is necessary for the 2017 fourth-round pick. Jenkins will be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, and the earliest he can return is Week 12 against the Cardinals on Nov. 24.

  • Being let go by Jags

    Jacksonville plans to release Jenkins, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Jenkins' release will save the Jaguars roughly $5.1 million against the cap, while the team's other announced cut of veteran cornerback Darious Williams will save the team roughly $10 million. In each of his last two seasons Jenkins has played all 17 games and turned in a triple-digit tackling effort, so he should garner real interest as a free agent. Antonio Johnson, a 2023 fifth-round pick, will be a candidate to replace Jenkins in the starting lineup.

  • Reworks deal

    Jenkins restructured his contract with Jacksonville on Thursday, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.

    Analysis: Jenkins had signed a four-year deal with the team in 2021 worth $35 million. The restructuring converted $6.4 million of his salary into a signing bonus, which opened up $5.1 million in cap space for the Jaguars this offseason, according to Jason Fitzgerald of overthecap.com. Jenkins finished the 2022 season with a career-high 116 tackles (73 solo) and should maintain his starting strong-safety job in 2023.

  • Sets career high in tackles

    Jenkins had 116 tackles (73 solo), one sack, 12 passes defensed, one interception and three forced fumbles in 17 games during the 2022 regular season.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old finished with a career high in tackles and finished second on the team, trailing only league-leader Foye Oluokun. It's the first time Jenkins has eclipsed the 100-tackle mark in his career, and he also had his first forced fumbles. He carries a $10.25 million cap hit for 2023 and would have just a $4 million in dead cap if released, which makes him a prime cut or restructure candidate this offseason.

    Analysis: Though it was expected that Jenkins wouldn't be able to replicate his 18-tackle, two-interception performance he displayed in Week 15 versus Dallas, he still tied for a team-high nine stops and played all but one defensive snap in Thursday's victory over New York. The 28-year-old has already set new career highs with 104 tackles and 11 passes defensed on the season, and he'll now look to keep momentum moving forward when the Jaguars travel to Houston on New Year's Day.

  • Double-digit tackles

    Jenkins recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) and a pass defended in a 23-20 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Analysis: Jenkins 10 tackles were a season high and his defensed pass was his third of the season. Although Jenkins typically plays 100 percent of the defensive snaps, his tackle totals are not elite and he still has not forced a turnover, leading to some underwhelming stat lines most weeks. Jenkins and the Jaguars are headed into a bye week and will travel to Seattle for Week 8.

  • Records eight tackles

    Jenkins had eight tackles (four solo) during Thursday's 24-21 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old has now played every defensive snap through the first four games of the season and tied for the team lead in tackles Thursday with Myles Jack and Tyson Campbell. Jenkins has 22 total tackles this season and isn't an IDP option at his current level of production.

  • Joining Jags

    Jenkins agreed to a four-year contract with the Jaguars on Monday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Jenkins is one of a number of prospective free agents to agree to terms with Jacksonville on Monday, including fellow safety Rudy Ford. Unlike Ford, Jenkins projects as a likely starter for the Jaguars next season. He started 15 games for the Chargers in 2020 before injuring his ankle, notching a career-high 84 tackles in that span.

  • Unable to play Sunday

    Jenkins (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Jenkins started the first 15 games of the season. The 2017 fourth-round pick posted career highs in tackles (84), sacks (one) and pass breakups (four). He added two interceptions as well. Jenkins will be a free agent in March.

  • Exits with ankle injury

    Jenkins suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Jenkins exited in the first quarter before recording a tackle. Jahleel Addae and, to a lesser extent, Alohi Gilman should see increased reps if Jenkins can't return.

  • Career-high 11 stops

    Jenkins made 11 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Jenkins set a new career high in tackles during this performance. The fourth-year safety has started every game for the Chargers this season because Derwin James (knee) is on IR, and he's cashed in on the opportunity with 70 stops through 11 outings. He'll hit triple digits at this rate.

  • Active in coverage

    Jenkins recorded seven tackles (six solo), two pass breakups and an interception in Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Jenkins has now posted seven or more tackles in four of the last five games, but these were his first marks in the pass breakup and interception columns this year. His playing time has been consistent, playing all of the defensive snaps in five straight contests. Jenkins could be busy again Week 9 when Josh Jacobs and the Raiders come to town.

  • Piles together eight tackles

    Jenkins had eight tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 39-29 win against Jacksonville.

    Analysis: Jenkins played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps and has converted at least eight tackles two games in a row. The hard-hitting safety is quickly starting to emerge as an intriguing fantasy option and should be in for another featured matchup against the run-heavy Broncos.

  • Records nine tackles

    Jenkins had nine tackles (seven solo) during Monday's 30-27 loss to the Saints in overtime.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old finished second on the team in tackles behind Kyzir White, and it's the second time this season he's posted nine tackles. Jenkins' IDP value remains limited since he has eight total tackles over three games besides the two nine-tackle performances.

  • Ready to play

    Jenkins (groin) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Jenkins was upgraded to full practice Friday after he was limited earlier in the week, so this news isn't surprising. The 2017 fourth-round pick should expect to handle his usual starting safety role for the contest now that he's healthy.

  • Questionable for Week 4

    Jenkins (groin) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Jenkins began the week with back-to-back limited practices, but he upgraded to full participation Friday. The starting safety looks like he's trending in the right direction, but a final word on his availability may not be given until approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 P.M. ET kickoff.

  • Piles together nine tackles

    Jenkins (groin) registered nine tackles (three solo) and a sack in the 21-16 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Jenkins continues to build off a productive 2019 season where he registered 54 tackles as the pseudo starting safety. The loss of Derwin James (knee) means the veteran should be safely locked into starting duties for the foreseeable future, although the team did sign longtime Charger, Jahleel Addae, to the team's practice squad early last week.

  • Ready to rock

    Jenkins (groin) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    Analysis: Jenkins suffered the groin injury in last week's loss to the Chiefs, however, he's healthy enough to suit up a week later. The 2017 fourth-round pick should return to his usual role as the team's starting strong safety.

  • Day-to-day with groin issue

    Jenkins (groin) is considered day-to-day after exiting Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old was limited to 34 defensive snaps Sunday due to the groin injury, and he remains less than 100 percent. Jenkins' status should be updated further when the Chargers return to practice later in the week.

  • Exits with groin injury

    Jenkins is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chiefs due to a groin injury.

    Analysis: Jenkins missing any time is a significant blow to a Chargers' secondary already operating without Derwin James (knee). Desmond King and Alohi Gilman will handle increased workloads as long as Jenkins is unable to play.

  • Respectable year as fill-in

    Jenkins registered 54 tackles (34 solo), three interceptions and four passes defended over the course of the 2019 season.

    Analysis: Jenkins was forced into a prominent secondary position after injuries to Derwin James (ankle) and Adrian Phillips (forearm) left the Chargers vulnerable at safety. Despite the relatively high tackle numbers, the 26-year-old safety was a net negative against the run according to multiple Pro Football Focus rankings and likely will see his playing time reduced in 2020 with the healthy return of both James and Phillips.

  • Picks off Mahomes in Mexico City

    Jenkins registered three tackles and one interception in a 24-17 loss to the Chiefs on Monday.

    Analysis: Monday night's game, played in Mexico City, saw Jenkins record his third interception of 2019, but it came in a Chargers loss. He remains a risky play in IDP formats, largely because of a lack of tackles. As an every-down safety, the 25-year-old has only registered 43 tackles this season.
