The New York Giants waived starting cornerback Janoris Jenkins on Friday morning after speculative comments made during the week. After interacting with a fan via Twitter and using a derogatory word, head coach Pat Shurmur spoke with the defender regarding his actions.
Jenkins didn’t seem to care for Shurmur’s opinion, virtually begging to be cut after numerous losing seasons and tough outings this year. The Giants will now move in a different direction at the position, with first-round pick Deandre Baker and Supplemental Draft pick Sam Beal both fighting to earn starting roles.
The #Giants have officially moved on, waiving/injured CB Janoris Jenkins.
