On Wednesday, veteran safety Malcolm Jenkins formally announced his retirement from the NFL after 13 seasons.
“I played the game at the highest level for 13 seasons,” Jenkins said on The Pivot podcast. “And I have accomplished Super Bowls, Pro Bowl, all that there is to do in this game. And when I came in, I always wanted to make an impact on the game on and off the field. And I just feel like at this point I’ve accomplished that.”
Jenkins, a first-round draft pick of the New Orleans Saints in 2009, played for the team through 2013 before signing with the Philadelphia Eagles, staying there through 2019.
