Malcolm Jenkins’ triumphant return to New Orleans couldn’t have got off to a better start. Jenkins was used all over the Saints’ defense and had an impact in seemingly every role. He spent snaps as a deep-lying free safety (22) in the box (20), crowding the line of scrimmage as a threat to blitz (17), covering the slot (7) and even split wide as a perimeter corner to match up with Bucs’ receivers (4). He even played special teams to add to his contributions. Jenkins had two total pressures from six pass-rushing snaps on the blitz, recorded two defensive stops and didn’t give up a catch during the game as the Saints defense frustrated Tom Brady and the Bucs. ![]() |

Re: Malcolm Jenkins
Man how times have changed! I remember when we moved from Baton Rouge to Billings Mt I’d have to check the Monday paper to see weather Russell Erxleben hit a game winner or not! You youngsters got that all at your fingertips now. GET OFF MY LAWN YOU DANG HIPPIES!! 🤣
