Do anyone know why he started the game and did we cut him after the game. Because he didn't impress me at all and after Foster ran the ball up the middle and made that one move I would have cut him.

-Jenkins was hurt.
-Short offseason, new system
-He's expected to be a backup, not a starter
-It's the second game of the preseason.
-The sky is not falling.

where is Darren Sharper

FA. It appears all 32 front offices don't feel the need to add him just yet.

It was just 1 game, but it was ugly.

The guy started 1/2 the season for the number 1 defense in the NFL.

It may be he's still adjusting to our system and was out of position.

I think GW will take a longer look at him these next two games. If you don't see him getting a lot of playing time, he's likely already gone.

1 preseason game does not a year ruin

Must be the number he's wearing. It's cursed!!! Lol

He supposedly has great versatility... able to play both safety spots and CB as well, but I guess that doesn't matter if you can't perform up to par in any of them... still optimistic about him despite the last game.

Good points, but he did get faked out of his jock...

Man, that's one clip I bet he'd like burned...
