John Jenkins News: Active for Week 16

Jenkins (illness) is active for Sunday night's game against the Patriots.

Jenkins seems to have recovered from the illness that caused him to miss consecutive practices to end Week 16. The nose tackle should be ready to rock for Sunday night's prime-time contest. The 36-year-old has yet to miss a game this season, coming into Sunday night with 34 tackles (15 solo), including 1.0 sacks and two forced fumbles through 14 games.
