Watch: Malcolm Jenkins speaks at Philadelphia protest

New Orleans Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins spent the last six years playing for the Philadelphia Eagles, and the city still has an important place in his heart. Jenkins returned to Philadelphia for a peaceful protest on Saturday following the death of George Floyd, joining several of his former Eagles teammates in the crowd of demonstraters.

Jenkins was also given an opportunity to speak in front of the Philadelphia African American Museum, in which he continued to use his platform to advocate for police reform and condemn racial inequality:

“To the powers that be, I hope that we have your attention,” Jenkins said in a video captured at the event by FOX 29’s Alex Holley.
