[Cowboys] Dallas CB Mike Jenkins Downplays Criticism Over Non-Tackle

Cowboys rookie CB Mike Jenkins has been lampooned nationally for his failure to even attempt to tackle a Giants running back and prevent a touchdown on Sunday. Jenkins claims it wasn’t as bad as it looked. “I was just waiting on the safety to make a play,” Jenkins said. “It just looked different. I really can’t explain it.” Jenkins said he wasn’t shying away from contact even though it looked that way. “That’s what it looked like. That’s your eyes. If that’s what you seen, that’s what you seen. I wasn’t the only one there,” Jenkins said. “Everybody’s pointing it out like it was me, but there was a safety back there, too.”

Nice teammate. Instead of manning up and taking the heat, he tries deflecting it on his safety.
