With Dallas Goedert (hamstring) and Albert Okwuegbunam (abdomen) yet to return from IR, Jenkins will serve as the Eagles' No. 3 tight end behind Grant Calcaterra and Jack Stoll.

The rookie out of Georgia Tech could be a contributor for Philadelphia down the line, but for now, he'll get a chance to continue learning the tight end position on the Eagles' practice squad.
