It didn’t take long for Malcolm Jenkins to put together a highlight reel when the New Orleans Saints drafted him out of Ohio State, back in the day. Unfortunately, too many negative plays sent him to the Philadelphia Eagles right when he was hitting his stride.
The good news is that the Saints have corrected that mistake by agreeing to terms with Jenkins to a four-year contract in free agency. It’s a popular move in the Saints locker room, and for good reason; Jenkins has become one of the better safeties around the league after six years in Philly, and he offers badly-needed experience and playmaking ability as a two-time Super Bowl champion and three-time Pro Bowler.
