E.J. is a great story. When you talk about a receiver at Georgia Tech who transformed his body, he's 260 pounds, he's 6'6″, he's got 34-inch arms... a big target in the passing game, but a point of attack player. His pass protection — when we went over his pass protection, it is really, really good to have a tight end who's able to pass protect like he is and then in the run game be able to help.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Jenkins retained as developmental TE; Roseman praises pass protection, receiving skills, and run-game versatility.

Roseman kept TE Jenkins on the active roster, highlighting his developmental story as a former Georgia Tech receiver who transformed his body to 6'6", 260 pounds with 34-inch arms. Jenkins is valued as a wide tight end in the mold of highly-sought free agency and draft targets; he contributes as a pass-catcher, point-of-attack run blocker, and pass protector, plus special teams contributor. Roseman noted Jenkins played in the Super Bowl in 2024 and represents an exciting developmental prospect for the organization.
