Former Eagles star Malcolm Jenkins delivers cartful of food to Philadelphia election workers as vote count rolls on

As the 2020 presidential election continued into its fourth day, former Philadelphia Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins wanted to make sure Philadelphia’s election workers were getting the food they needed.

The three-time Pro Bowler, now playing for the New Orleans Saints, escorted a full cart of food from local businesses — Keven Parker's Soul Food Cafe at Reading Terminal Market — to the people counting votes at the the Pennsylvania Convention Center.

Per ESPN’s Tim McManus, Jenkins covered lunch for 300 workers.

The food donation was reportedly made in conjunction with Jenkins’ foundation, which aims to “empower youth to transcend the limits of their circumstance and reach their full potential,” according to its site.
