MALCOLM JENKINS RUMORS

Saints' Harper, Jenkins begin mentoring Vaccaro

A necessary but potentially awkward period has begun for Roman Harper and Malcolm Jenkins. The defensive leaders and starting safeties find themselves tutoring a first-round draft choice who could very well take one of their jobs before long. They knew this time was coming since New Orleans last month selected Texas safety Kenny Vaccaro 15th overall and coach Sean Payton said the...

Malcolm Jenkins compares Rob Ryan to Gregg Williams

Last year the New Orleans Saints were crippled by a punishment handed down by the league after the team was caught in a bounty scandal which was headed by the team’s former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. One with common sense would think that the team would do anything it can to disassociate itself from the man who got the team’s head coach, Sean Peyton, suspended for...

Saints Nation: With Newfound Cap Space, Could Saints Sign Another Veteran?

The trade of Chris Ivory helped the Saints land John Jenkins in the draft but it also had the nice side benefit of giving the Saints a little breathing room with the salary cap. According to NOLA.com, which quotes the NFLPA, the Saints are now $3.1 million under the cap. That gives them the ability to add a couple of free agents at slightly more than the vet's minimum. I wouldn...

Saints Nation: Time for Saints to Start Anew at Safety

I've been done with the Malcolm Jenkins/Roman Harper back end experiment for a while and I've made no secret of this. I blame them as much as anyone for how pathetically horrible the Saints were on defense last year. Further, I blame those two players most specifically for the last two postseason exits. Of 88 qualifying graded safeties last year on Pro Football Focus, Harper...

The New Orleans Saints bolster the middle of their secondary add S Kenny Vaccaro

The New Orleans Saints overhaul the back-end of their defense by selecting with the 15th overall pick Kenny Vaccaro the star safety out of Texas. He is an excellent tackler with strong closing speed that head coach Sean Payton loves . One of the best all-around athletes at the position and has the game tape to prove it. Vaccaro, who ran a 4.63 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine...

Saints remain defiant after post-bounty loss

New Orleans defensive captain Malcolm Jenkins says he appreciates that the Saints did nothing to change the minds of those who suspect the bounty scandal and related suspensions will derail their season. He also points out that previous playoff seasons included setbacks that looked a lot like their sloppy, out-of-synch, penalty-ridden loss to Washington in Sunday's season opener...

Saints Nation: Malcolm Jenkins Could Stand to Benefit Most from New Defense

The day Malcolm Jenkins was drafted by the New Orleans Saints out of the 1st round he came with very high expectations. He was rated the best defensive back of his class and the Saints were ecstatic that he dropped to them. At the time Jenkins was a cornerback and the Saints dispelled any rumors he possibly projected as a free safety. Of course, the Saints felt pretty good about...

New Shoes For All – KSK Kontent Klearinghouse

Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins lost his cleats and a good measure of pride by being defeated in a best-of-three receiving drill by a high school player at Jenkins’ own football camp in New Jersey. Cleats are a decent prize, but it’s only fitting that the camp pays for the kid to meet with Vernon Davis over dinner where the two can share intimates tales of abusing Malcolm Jenkins...
