Overview
- NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports the Browns are listening on Rayshawn Jenkins, who remains on the active roster with no deal agreed.
- Jenkins has played in all eight games with 21 tackles, one interception and one fumble recovery, and he leads the NFL with 13 special-teams tackles.
- The nine-year veteran has logged about 21.5% of defensive snaps behind starters Grant Delpit and Ronnie Hickman while playing 55.6% of special-teams snaps.
- Signed in May for $1.42 million, Jenkins offers plug-and-play depth at safety and core special-teams value after previous stops with the Chargers, Jaguars and Seahawks.
- At 2-6 entering a Week 9 bye, Cleveland is reassessing expiring contracts after recent moves involving Joe Flacco and a cornerback swap, with potential returns for Jenkins expected to be late-round picks or a player-for-player deal.
