JANORIS JENKINS NEWS

Absent from injury report Jenkins (shoulder) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.

Impact Jenkins will return to the lineup Sunday against the Panthers after missing the team's last two games. The veteran cornerback was strong in coverage over the first three weeks, allowing a 58.0 passer rating and no touchdowns when targeted. He'll immediately return to a starting role.

Can't go Monday Jenkins (shoulder) has been ruled out for Monday's game versus the Chargers.

Impact Jenkins will miss a second straight game after sitting out practice all week, but he'll aim to utilize the Week 6 bye to come back healthy against the Panthers in Week 7. Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is also questionable, so the Saints' secondary is in rough shape heading into Monday. Expect Patrick Robinson to handle a full workload regardless of Lattimore's game-time status.

Not able to practice Thursday Jenkins (shoulder) was a non-participant during the Saints' practice session Thursday.

Impact The 31-year-old cornerback missed his first game action of the season in Week 4, as the Saints surrendered 206 passing yards and three touchdowns to Detroit's Matthew Stafford in a 35-29 win. Jenkins has been very sturdy in coverage this season when active, allowing a 57.9 percent completion rate with zero touchdowns surrendered. If he misses a second consecutive start Monday night against the Chargers, Patrick Robinson would be entrusted with a more vital role in the secondary.

Won't play Sunday Jenkins (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Detroit, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact With both Jenkins and Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) sidelined, New Orleans will turn to Justin Hardee and Patrick Robinson at the cornerback position. Jenkins will hope to heal up in time for the team's Week 5 game against the Chargers.

Dealing with shoulder issue Jenkins (shoulder) was limited in Thursday's practice, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact Jenkins didn't practice due to an illness Wednesday, but it now appears as though he's managing a shoulder injury. If the starting cornerback is able to upgrade to full practice activity Friday, he'll dissolve any worries about his Week 4 availability.

Listed as DNP Jenkins (illness) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact This doesn't appear to be related to COVID-19, but Jenkins is away from the team nonetheless. As an every-snap player, Jenkins' availability is crucial for the team's game against the Lions on Sunday, but returning to practice in any capacity would signal he should be ready for Week 4.

Scores in Week 1 victory Jenkins totaled nine tackles (eight solo), one pass defended and a 36-yard interception returned for a touchdown in Sunday's 34-23 win over the Saints.

Impact With another solid showing, Jenkins is showing why the Saints picked him up last season and subsequently extended his contract through 2022. The veteran corner displayed his nose for the end zone once again, recording his eighth career pick-six, moving him into a tie for eighth all time in NFL history for interceptions returned for touchdowns. He'll face Las Vegas' young receiving corps in Week 2.
