Giants agree to deal with top CB Janoris Jenkins


The New York Giants agreed to a deal with Los Angeles Rams cornerback Janoris Jenkins Wednesday afternoon, Paste BN Sports' Lorenzo Reyes has confirmed.

The contract is worth $62.5 million, $28.8 million of which is guaranteed, over five years.

Jenkins, one of the most sought-after defensive backs set to his free agency, was not franchise tagged by the Rams last week, designation that instead went to fellow defensive back Trumaine Johnson.

The NFL Network was the first to report that Jenkins was on the move.

Jenkins, taken in the second round out of North Alabama by the Rams in the 2012 NFL draft, had 10 interceptions --- half returned for touchdowns --- in his four-season run with the franchise.
