Jenkins is not attending the team’s voluntary offseason workout program at this point in time Cameron Johnston Jerseys 2019 , according to a report from the Inquirer’s Jeff McLane.Jenkins is well within his rights to skip voluntary workouts. But it’s not a total non-story when one of the team’s defensive captains and most vocal leaders — whom has never previously missed offseason workouts — decides to not show up with the rest of the team.As McLane suggests, it’s possible Jenkins could be trying to make a statement about his contract. Here’s a snapshot of his current deal, per Over The Cap:Jenkins’ average annual value of $8.75 million currently ranks 10th among all NFL safeties. He could very well feel that he’s underpaid in that regard. And he’d have a strong case. Jenkins has been an incredibly value player for the Eagles, both on and off the field. He hasn’t missed a single game since signing with the team in 2014. Heck, he didn’t even miss a single defensive SNAP during the 2018 season. In addition to being a versatile defender (snaps at safety Black DeAndre Carter Jerseys , nickel, cornerback, and even linebacker), Jenkins is invaluable as a leader in the locker room. He played a big part in the Eagles winning Super Bowl LII and he helped spark a defensive turnaround in 2018. You can pinpoint his interception against the Giants in Week 12 as the moment the season stopped going off the rails. The Eagles could be reluctant to give Jenkins, who turns 32 in December DeAndre Carter Jerseys 2019 , more money in order to avoid establishing a precedent of paying players extra when they already have a contract in place. But very few players have gone above and beyond like Jenkins has done. Alienating one of the team’s most important players would not be a good call.To be clear, Jenkins has not publicly expressed any discontent with his contract situation. Maybe he just wants to work out on his own as he enters his 11th season in the NFL. But there’s probably more to it than that. We’ll soon see if Jenkins continues his absence from the NovaCare Complex. The Eagles’ first OTA practice is set for Tuesday, May 21.

Assuming this timeline holds true Black Malik Jackson Jerseys , this is relatively good news for the Eagles. Sudfeld might be able to suit up at some point before the first month of the season is over. Six weeks from today is September 20, which is only a couple days before the Eagles’ Week 3 home game against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, September 22. If Sudfeld’s not ready by then, maybe he’d be ready by the Week 4 Packers road game on Thursday, September 26? The concern is that’s a short week ... plus travel. So Malik Jackson Jerseys 2019 , maybe Week 5 at home against the Jets on Sunday, October 6 at the very latest. If Sudfeld truly isn’t going to miss much time, the Eagles could truly be planning to stick with Cody Kessler as Carson Wentz’s primary backup until Sudfeld is healthy again. Clayton Thorson can be stashed on the practice squad for additional “depth,” though the rookie looks very unfit to play in 2019. The Eagles will hope Sudfeld will be ready sooner than later. They’ll also hope he won’t have to play at all this year since they really need Wentz to stay healthy in order to truly contend for another Super Bowl title.
