Jenkins tested positive for the coronavirus Thursday and will be placed on the Texans' reserve/COVID-19 list, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Jenkins, cornerback Lonnie Johnson, safety Eric Murray and defensive tackle Roy Lopez are among the Texans who tested positive Thursday, bringing the organization's total number of players on the reserve/COVID-19 list or practice squad/COVID-19 list up to 22. After tearing the PCL of his left knee Nov. 21 against the Titans, Jenkins was activated from injured reserve last week and played 31 snaps on defense in Houston's win over Jacksonville. Even if he's vaccinated, Jenkins will face an uphill battle to gain clearance ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.
