Jenkins told Ryan Clark of "The Pivot Podcast" during his appearance on Wednesday's episode that he has retired from professional football.
Jenkins walks away from a productive 13-year career in which he established himself as a franchise cornerstone for both New Orleans and Philadelphia. In addition to helping the Saints and Eagles both secure their only respective Super Bowl wins, Jenkins was a three-time Pro Bowler and a three-time NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year finalist. Jenkins' retirement leaves a notable void at strong safety for the Saints heading into the 2022 season.
