The journey of Chris Ivory: Dismissed, discarded and, finally, celebrated

I agree for the most part.

Jenkins looked good as a rookie but hasn't seemed to improve; maybe he's even regressed.

So what happened to him?

Good question. And one that's asked of too many of our D-linemen. What happened to Hicks? Mike D was predicting a Jimmy Graham type emergence for Hicks a few years ago, but it never happened.

What happened to Cam Jordan? Two years ago we were literally comparing him to JJ Watt (and there was legitimate reason for it). Granted, Jordan has looked better this year, but I don't know where the Cam Jordan of 2 years ago went.

I had high hopes for Jenkins. We need him in a bad way. He showed promise early, but to answer your question: I don't know. I wish I did.
