Giants waive CB Janoris Jenkins

Recommended Posts

He was chirping a lot for a guy getting repeatedly burned this season. Not a”process” guy, but I wouldn’t be surprised if OBD takes a gander. He was a top 10 CB in the league as recently as last season imho.

Wow. He is one of the dumbest humans on the planet but he is so far from the problem with that team.  The funny thing is them cutting him just is a big favor to him. He’ll get picked up by some playoff team and be playing meaningful football this year and a chance to rehab his image.

I think its a push.  He also did them a favor.   Still a mid level Cornerback, but they save around 11 Million dollars in salary on a guy who is at the end of his career.   He was likely out the door at the end of the season anyway.

He got waived for calling a fan a "tard"?  Pretty weak.

And apparently that means he is" one of the dumbest humans on the planet"...a moron. Intellectually Challenged. He has a different skill set.

technically he was cut not for using the word, but for being unapologetic when pressed by the media to acknowledge that it was inappropriate. At least according to Shurmur.

Don't forget he use to use that language in the Hood because it was part of his culture. Yeah so did I in my "hood", it doesn't make it right in the public's perception.

 

Just say sorry and move on, he's dumb.

Someday "Dumb" will be deemed offensive.

Good excuse to cut a guy who is no longer playing at the level of his contract.

He was absolutely terrible in the second half vs. the Eagles.

He seems to be really taking it hard...his tweet about it: "Best thing ever."

 

TLDR;

 

He got released after calling a fan a "reta*d" on twitter and then refused to apologize for it, saying it is part of "his slang"

Direct quote from Jenkins, "I'm not calling nobody no name or pick at nobody. It's just something we use in the hood back at home."

When I was growing up in the 50s, the "N word" was not considered derogatory in the lily white community I grew up in.  It was who we thought they were.  Once you have a chance to broaden your horizons and figure out what labels offend people, you have a responsibility to start using terms that people find acceptable, or you're going to make a lot of enemies.

IMO he was wrong to say what he said, didn't apologize, and basically said "well I said it because...that's what I say".  Consequences.

If you are calling someone dumb...that likely would be offensive to most people.

I don't think he's including the person he's calling "dumb".

I wonder how well that excuse would work for someone who used the 'n-word' because they used to use it as slang back in the trailer park?........

Huge difference between the two.  Pretty sure most people used that word growing up in one form or another.  Now you might make half the room sob into their hankies if you used it.

My son played directly against Jenkins in the Florida high school playoffs. The kids from the little Catholic school in Sarasota hung in there for a half against Pahokee. That seemed to make them angry. The second half.....did not go well for us.
