NFL: Saints, Jenkins agree on 5-year deal


Associated Press

METAIRIE, La. — Rookie cornerback Malcolm Jenkins has agreed to terms on a five year contract with the New Orleans Saints.

Jenkins was the Saints' first-round draft pick, taken 14th overall, and has missed the first 10 days of training camp, including the club's scrimmage on Saturday.

Jenkins made a career-best 57 tackles during his senior season at Ohio State. He also had three interceptions, three forced fumbles and a sack.

The Saints did not release financial terms.
