kris jenkins

He burned a lot of bridges when he left. Most weren't with the coaching staff either. Read up on the Gene Brown story, when they were in Charlotte for the preseason game last year those two had a few choice words at each other.

I dont think hed be on IR as a situational DT, if hes in shape. Again Rivera won't even sign a guy thats not going to stay in shape, if thats doesn't apply, then he won't be here anyway.

When Kris Jenkins was drafted in 2001 he suffered from an undiagnosed case of Sleep Apnea. Basically it means you're so fat you can't sleep well. I know someone who had it and he'd basically wake up about 1,000 times a night and immediately fall back to sleep. It's pretty crazy. Because he was essentially exhausted all the time there were a lot of questions about his motivation and drive, but since he was a massive, strong, and very quick dude he got drafted in the 2nd round by the Panthers and has an okay 2001.

Well guess what turns out once he gets that sleep apnea taken care of he's the best DT in the league, and from 02-03 he was exactly that.

04 he blew out his shoulder i think it was at kansas city and missed the year. during this time he became a raging alcoholic.

05 he blew out his knee in the like first game of the season. to fight his alcoholism motherf**ker got fat as hell.

06 rucker became worthless and halfway through peppers stopped caring. i firmly believe halfway through 2006 was when the team lost julius. jenkins didn't like how there was absolutely no sense of accountability for certain players and decided that fox played favorites. 2006 was a year when nothing went right and things should have. that was as bad a coaching job as 2004 was a good one and jenks hated it

07 things came to a head. fox was pissed about jenkins weight, jenkins was pissed about living in charlotte because of how boring it was, the team fell apart, and jenkins went on that epic rant to yasinskas where he called out everyone.

then he was traded to play nose tackle and became happier.

basically he was a really misunderstood dude who lived in phillips place and just threw empty pizza boxes out of the window and it got so bad that they asked him to move lol

[SorthNarolina]

talented malcontent that hated the small city life of charlotte and whined until he got traded and then put on IR where he has spent the majority of his fat career.

What's pretty funny is that he has a very large nice home here, and his kids go to one of the local private schools from what I've heard. Didn't like the dinky city but the cheap real estate and nice schools/environment are nice.

I don't know many sets of kids he has though.

[koolkatluke]

I don't think he likes this organization.

[blackcatgrowl]

i saw somewhere that he said he wanted to move back to Charlotte after he retired. To be honest, if the Jets want to cut their losses, i wouldn't mind bring him in for the 4-3 looks and/or 3rd downs.

You want to bring an injury prone DT, who's at the end of his career, who has already dissed our team in the past, back here, WHY?

[Peppers90 NC]

man do our fans not pay attention, or have a bad memory or just new to football? i typically blame it on the first and last

[CatMan72]

I'd bring Hollis Thomas back before I brought Kris back...

This.

I don't know if it was predicting the snap count or freak reflexes but I've never seen someone come off the ball as quick as Jenkins. I haven't seen him play in ages, but I'd sign him in a heartbeat if he still has that quickness. Depends on his salary expectations, if bottom fed I don't consider it very likely but anythings possible.

lol why are you talking poo after the game

[cookinbrak]

Hey Hey Hey!!!

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

...so much for anyone who ever said we messed up by trading him away. Torn ACl's on big fat guys who tackle is not so good. A great Hurney move at precisely the right time.

[Jangler]

crack doesn't burn black....I call shenanigans.

I've said from the first time I saw him. "That is the quickest fat man I've ever seen." If I saw it once I saw it a hundred times and said "OH! OFFSIDES!" And he seldom ever was.

Hate all the crap that's happened over the years. I'd really like to see it all level out and give the few fans that have stuck with this team since it's concept a dyansty.
