The 49ers announced they signed cornerback Janoris Jenkins to the team’s practice squad. This would signal the team's plans on relying on a veteran down the stretch. But, to me, it also says DeMeco Ryans wants a cornerback that excels in man coverage.
Jenkins, who turned 34 in October, hasn’t played all season. He started every game for the Titans a year ago. He allowed a 56.7 percent completion percentage while giving up four touchdowns on 67 targets compared to one interception and seven pass breakups.
Sports Info Solutions “total points saved” metric Jenkins had 38 points saved last year.
