New York Giants defensive back Janoris Jenkins has been suspended indefinitely, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Jenkins will not play against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9 and it remains to be seen what happens after that. He was apparently tardy in returning to the team after the Giants' Week 8 bye. Jared Goff gains some streaming appeal with Jenkins out on Sunday.
In six games this season, Jenkins has 24 tackles (2 solo) with 6 pass deflections, 1 interception, 1 forced fumble, and 1 defensive touchdown. As a unit, the Giants rank 19th in Adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points allowed per play.
