Wow: New Orleans Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins announced Wednesday that he is retiring from pro football on his own terms, sharing the news on the Pivot podcast with. Jenkins, 34, won Super Bowl XLIV with the Saints and earned another championship in Super Bowl LII with the Philadelphia Eagles before returning to where his career started.
It makes sense for him. Jenkins is stepping away from football in great health and with a wide variety of other business interests to pursue as an investor and entrepreneur. Not many guys get to choose their opportunity like this.
But for the Saints, this opens a tremendous vacancy in their secondary — Jenkins led the team in defense snaps played last season. His teammate, Marcus Williams, ranked third. The team explicitly hired Dennis Allen to maintain defensive continuity. That’s going to be tough with two of his three top players leaving the building.
