Another Giants cornerback is explaining himself to McAdoo

Janoris Jenkins said he left the field before the end of last Sunday’s loss to the Chargers because he thought the game was over.

The Giants trailed 27-22 and the Chargers were in kneel-down mode when Ben McAdoo called a timeout with 38 seconds remaining. Following the timeout, Philip Rivers kneeled down a second time and the time on the clock expired.

Jenkins exited the field and headed to the locker room with 38 seconds left.

“I didn’t expect the timeout to be called so I just walked in, everybody was going on the field, the game was over and I just went in,’’ Jenkins said Thursday after practice.
