The secondary might be the strength of the New Orleans Saints defense this year, and veteran safety Malcolm Jenkins has a good idea why that could be the case. He’s seeing it every day in practice when cornerbacks Marshon Lattimore and Janoris Jenkins are making his job easier.
“For me, and without knocking anybody I’ve played with, I don’t think I’ve played with a tandem who are both as talented as Marshon and Janoris,” Jenkins said in his media conference call after Thursday’s training camp session.
That’s high praise from a player entering his twelfth season in the NFL, who won a pair of Super Bowl rings with the Saints and the Philadelphia Eagles.
