Malcolm Jenkins
 
Malcolm Jenkins, has been coming up big. Can wait till he becomes a starter.

Without the turnovers, we could have easily been behind in the 4th quarter. This may have (with Payton) forced us out of the running game which would have led to a potential loss.

That play and the Will Smith/Hancock Int was HUGE!!!

I truly believe if jenkins wouldn't have been a holdout he would be starting right now. He got his money but the holdout cost him a starting job.

But who would you bench in order for Jenkins to start? Greer? Porter? I think it's fine the way we've been using him. Bring him along slowly and if he takes over the nickel role from Gay, that in itself would be a nice accomplishment for his rookie season.

It appears our offense is definitely missing that power short yardage back doesn't it? ;)

Right now Greer is the best DB on the team so hes not going anywhere. Maybe Jenkins beats him out if he was there from day one who knows but I do think he needs more playing time but I can't answer who rides the pine for him to play. Best bet would be maybe as a rotation after a long coverage for someone to get a breather I don't know but he is creating turnovers.

He would not be starting over Greer or Porter. They are not the biggest or the fastest, but they can sure play.

Again...I agree, and I'm sure he will become more "involved" as the season (and He) progresses.

Not getting down on Jenkins at all. But how do a few good special teams plays translate into being a starting cornerback?

its about effort and he does get playing time on defense.....i noticed him playing some zone this game but i still havent seen him successfully cover someone in man coverage...

when he makes plays on special teams it opens up eyes and makes people watch him more whenever he is on the field....including playing defense
