| Sun Nov 11 2012 | 22:32 | Janoris Jenkins scratched for rules violation | ||||
Rams second-round pick Janoris Jenkins was a healthy scratch in Week 10 due to a violation of team rules. | ||||||
Jenkins donned street clothes on the sideline, along with Chris Givens, another rookie who was suspended for the game for the same reasons. It's believed Jenkins and Givens simply didn't show up to last Tuesday's practice, coming off St. Louis' bye week. Bradley Fletcher for Jenkins, with rookie Trumaine Johnson at nickel back. Danny Amendola replaced Givens at wide receiver. | ||||||

Rams RCB Janoris Jenkins (back) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. | ||||||
No injury was disclosed after Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, which is typical with Jeff Fisher-run teams. The second-round rookie and ex-Florida Gator started out red-hot with the rest of the St. Louis pass defense, but Jenkins gave up a head-scratching touchdown in Week 6, where he let Fins WR Marlon Moore run right by him for a 29-yard score. We'll know more on Jenkins' status later this week. | ||||||

The Rams official website confirms second-round CB Janoris Jenkins has a firm grasp on the starting job opposite Corland Finnegan. | ||||||
"Janoris Jenkins continues to impress out here," said assistant head coach Dave McGinnis. Jenkins has been one of the most consistent players in camp, regardless of position. The Rams pass defense should be much improved after their turn as fantasy star-makers in 2011. | ||||||

| Wed Aug 1 2012 | 14:16 | Report: Jenkins flashing 'Pro Bowl' ability | ||||
Appearing on SportsCenter Wednesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter singled out Rams second-round CB Janoris Jenkins as one of the most impressive rookies around NFL training camps. | ||||||
"Through a week of training camp, Janoris Jenkins has flashed Pro Bowl potential," stated Schefter. "He's looked like a natural corner, like he can man that position. Has looked like a difference maker at the cornerback spot, like a future Pro Bowl player. The Rams are very excited about what they've seen from their young cornerback so far." If Jenkins keeps his head on straight, he could lock down left cornerback in St. Louis long term. | ||||||
