Raiders' Jordan Jenkins: Placed on IR
Jenkins was placed on injured reserve with a torn ACL on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Jenkins signed with the Raiders on Wednesday, but he'll be unavailable for the entire 2022 campaign after sustaining a torn ACL in the second quarter of Saturday's preseason win over the Dolphins. He also dealt with a calf injury earlier in the offseason and will now face a lengthy recovery process ahead of the 2023 season.

Jordan Jenkins: Let go without an injury
Jenkins (calf) was released by the Texans on Monday after being removed from the PUP list, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Jenkins, who was dealing with a calf injury this offseason, passed a physical prior to being cut by Houston, thus clearing him of this health issue before hitting free agency. The 28-year-old linebacker recorded 20 tackles and 2.5 sacks last season, and he will now look to join a new team heading into the seventh regular season of his career.

Jordan Jenkins: Let go with injury designation
Jenkins (calf) was waived with an injury designation by the Texans on Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Jenkins, who'd been on the PUP list, will get a chance to latch onto a new team before his season is potentially over after reverting to Houston's IR. The 2016 third-round pick has appeared in double-digit games and registered at least 20 tackles across his first six years in the NFL and has 24.5 career sacks -- including 15 during a two-year run (2018-19) with the Jets.

Texans' Jordan Jenkins: Shifted to active/PUP list
Jenkins (ankle) was added to the active/physically unable to perform list by the Texans on Wednesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Jenkins will not be eligible to practice or play in the preseason until he is activated from this list by Houston -- a move the team can make at any point before the final roster cutdown date. If not, the veteran defensive end, who played 11 games for the Texans in 2021, will be forced to miss the first four contests of the regular season.

Texans' Jordan Jenkins: Gets positive COVID-19 result
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.

Jenkins was expected to miss at least three weeks after tearing his PCL, so this transaction doesn't come as a surprise.
