I do like Jenkins, this just feels like an emotional decision.


I think it was a deal to bring leadership and experience to perhaps the youngest secondary in the league. And to pull him and his family out of Philly I do believe they would of had to over pay a bit.

I think emotion is for rookie coaches.

I agree... We need leadership in that group. We need someone to help mentor Lattimore, cgj, and Marcus Williams. Lattimore is really good at times but has shown games where he is just plain bad.

We also need someone to be the veteran of the secondary to point out things in big moments that other don’t see. Maybe he can help prevent that 3rd and long conversion with less than a minute left.

It is also worth noting that good safeties can play a long time in this league. Even if they lose a step athletically they can make up from it with their smarts. It is why some corners transition from corner to safety as they age.
