Jenkins' Bengals Roster Battle | Cincinnatti Bengals News
Description
Kris Jenkins, a second-round Bengals pick in 2024, finds himself in a precarious roster battle as the team stacks its defensive line with high-profile additions like Dexter Lawrence and Jonathan Allen—and rookie Landon Robinson, who’s impressing in preseason. With just 36 tackles and a half-sack last season, plus ankle injuries sidelining him late, Jenkins’ path to the 53-man roster is narrow. His affordable two-year, $3M deal (less than $1M guaranteed) makes him an attractive trade candidate if cut. Analysts suggest McKinnley Jackson might be more likely to go than Jenkins—but with cuts looming, every move feels high-stakes for the Bengals’ defense.
