December 11, 2008 Mike Jenkins practiced Wednesday after missing two games with a hamstring injury, according to the Star-Telegram.
Our View:Jenkins is not yet a viable fantasy option, but the rookie cornerback will provide a boost to the injury-riddled Cowboys' secondary if able to go Sunday against the NFC East rival Giants.
November 24, 2008 Mike Jenkins is slated for an MRI on his injured hamstring, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Our View:The rookie has done a solid job at cornerback while filling in for the injured Terrence Newman, and would be a tough loss for the Cowboys if unable to go against the Seahawks Thursday, who gave the Redskins' solid secondary a tough battle yesterday.
November 23, 2008 Cornerback Mike Jenkins exited the game against San Francisco with a hamstring injury.
Our View:No word on the severity of the injury, but we will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
October 5, 2008 Cornerback Mike Jenkins was shaken up during the fourth quarter of the Week 5 game against the Bengals. He walked off the field under his own power.
Our View:The Cowboys can ill-afford to lose another defensive back, as they are already without Terence Newman and Roy Williams. Let's hope the rookie is okay.
August 7, 2008 Mike Jenkins will fill in for the injured Terence Newman at left cornerback in Saturday's preseason game against San Diego, according to the Dallas Morning News. Jenkins said, "I probably will be hyped up, but my main focus is to stay calm and work in the system."
Our View:Jenkins is talented enough to start right away in the NFL, but the Cowboys are deep at the position (if Pacman Jones gets reinstated), and Jenkins should be limited to a nickel or dime role as a rookie.
