Unfortunately, defensive end Jordan Jenkins’ time with the Las Vegas Raiders is over about as quickly as it started.
Last Wednesday, Jenkins signed a one-year contract for the veteran’s minimum with the Raiders. Three days later, he tore an ACL during the team’s 15-13 preseason victory over the Miami Dolphins, per Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network.

The Raiders placed the veteran pass rusher on injured reserve Sunday, and while that in itself doesn’t end his season, it does mean he won’t be able to suit up with the Silver and Black in 2022.
