Film breakdown: Malcolm Jenkins is so close to being great

by Jimmy Kempski

Malcolm Jenkins played a great game Week 1 against the Atlanta Falcons Monday night. Lacking good options at slot corner, the Eagles asked Jenkins to drop down and cover the slot when Atlanta went to 3- and 4-WR sets. That meant he often had to cover Julio Jones man-to-man, if the Falcons decided to line Jones up inside, and Jenkins was up to the challenge. However, two of Jenkins' "good" plays could have been game-changing plays.
