Jenkins is being released by the Titans on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Jenkins started in 13 of 14 appearances for the Titans last season, logging 54 tackles (38 solo), six pass breakups, one interception and one forced fumble. Now, after just one season with the team, the 33-year-old cornerback will need to look for a new home elsewhere.

Jenkins (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. The cornerback was unavailable for the Titans' practice Wednesday as he deals with his nagging ankle injury. Jenkins did play the Titans' last three games of the season after missing a couple weeks with the ankle issue, which makes his absence Wednesday a little less concerning. His status at practice Thursday will provide a clearer indication of his availability for Saturday's divisional-round matchup with the Bengals.

In his absence, Chris Jones is expected to once again see additional playing time in the Titans' secondary.

The Saints are releasing Jenkins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. One could argue that Jenkins is more valuable than the $7 million in cap space this move frees up, but the Saints are in a tough position with the salary cap. They've figured out keeping their top players around, but the second and third-tier veterans like Jenkins and Emmanuel Sanders will need to find new homes. Known for his playmaking more so than his reliable coverage, the 32-year-old Jenkins nonetheless remains viable as a starting outside cornerback, coming off a 2020 campaign with 12 pass defenses and three interceptions in 13 games. He has eight pick-sixes in his career, tied for eighth most all-time.

Jenkins totaled 55 tackles (44 solo), three interceptions and a touchdown across 13 regular-season games in 2020. Jenkins recorded his most tackles in three seasons and scored the eighth interception return touchdown of his career, moving him into eighth place in NFL history in that category. The veteran continues to be productive late into his career, and he'll look to keep up the solid play as he heads into his 10th season in 2021 with the Saints.
