Intentionality behind collegiate support systems that benefit Black athletes should extend to non-athletes
Since 2002, Black student athletes at Division I schools have increased their graduation rate from 56% to 82%. This improvement is supported by higher education reforms, including mandating stronger academic performance to be eligible to participate in college sports and requiring athletes meet benchmarks for degree completion to continue playing. These efforts are not the result of exceptionalism, but of intention.
I get 20-30 investment properties a month
Hi, I'm a licensed real estate agent in Maryland, and I have access to 20–30 off-market, first-come, first-served properties every month across the DMV area. I work exclusively with serious investors who are looking to build long-term relationships and want access to a consistent stream of deals. All properties are already under contract, come with guaranteed clear title, and go to the first investor who signs and submits the down payment. I work only with cash or hard money buyers.
Malcolm Jenkins on Jalen Hurts
Some moments in a career are about wins and losses. Others are about who you are when the game isn’t being played. Seven years ago, I learned firsthand how success in sports can collide with the politics of power. [You can find the original version of this post on Malcolm Jenkins’ Substack, LOVE, ART & WAR.] When my Eagles team won the Super Bowl in 2018, myself and other key players on the roster declined the invitation to visit the White House.
Malcolm Jenkins:This bill would bring justice to Louisianans convicted by nonunanimous juries
Eight years ago, Anquan Boldin and I co-founded the Players Coalition with a vision rooted in fairness: that our justice system should work for everyone, that every child deserves a chance no matter their Zip code and that punishment should never eclipse humanity. Over the years, we’ve stood with communities, lawmakers and fellow citizens to push for reforms that reflected these core beliefs — fueled by the conviction that our country could, and should, do better.
Leadership Isn’t Optional: What Jalen Hurts Just Showed Us
Some moments in a career are about wins and losses. Others are about who you are when the game isn't being played. 7 years ago, I learned firsthand how success in sports can collide with the politics of power. When my Eagles team won the Super Bowl in 2018, myself and other key players on the roster declined the invitation to visit the White House. In return, the invitation for the entire team was rescinded.
Our kids deserve better: vote NO on 3
On Saturday, March 29—tomorrow—folks across Louisiana will head to the polls and vote on Amendment 3. It might not sound like a big deal on the surface—but make no mistake, this one matters. It’s about our kids. It’s about our future. And it’s about who we choose to throw away and who we choose to protect. I’ve worn a lot of jerseys in my life. I’ve hoisted a Lombardi Trophy with the Saints and fought for justice through the Players Coalition.
Senate Bill 8, which is now law, favors tyranny over justice
There is no greater tyranny than government taking a person’s liberty without the criminal process being a “fair fight.” Public defenders are the nation’s firewall that protects the indigent accused from the “machinery of law enforcement.” But who should appoint the person to run public defense in Louisiana? As a Players Coalition co-founder and former Saints player, I care deeply about ensuring that Louisiana’s criminal justice system is fair and just.

What Winners Won't Tell You
As a two-time Super Bowl champion, three-time Pro-Bowler, first round draft pick, and former Jim Thorpe Award recipient, Malcolm Jenkins knows a thing or two about winning. Over the course of his thirteen-year NFL career, the now retired defensive back’s triumphs extend beyond that on the football field. As a successful entrepreneur he has seen the blossoming of his business ventures with an eponymous company named Malcolm Inc., and a media conglomerate named Listen Up Media.
Malcolm Jenkins and Demario Davis: Children shouldn’t be punished for Louisiana’s failings Original
Louisiana has failed the children in its care in Office of Juvenile Justice facilities and is planning to punish those children for its failings. The state’s plan to move children to the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola will exacerbate the harms to those children and make Louisiana less safe. The Office of Juvenile Justice has been holding children in unconscionable conditions.

Malcolm Jenkins and Natasha Cloud: For Philly to trust police, new oversight proposal must pass | Opinion
Philadelphia is at a crossroads as it decides how to address soaring gun violence and the ever-present police abuse. Among other measures, City Council is currently considering a proposal to dramatically expand civilian oversight of the police. This proposal must pass. Negotiations with the Fraternal Order of Police are ongoing over the police union contract that has historically protected officers who cause harm.

Players for justice: After the elections, time for major reforms in justice in New Orleans
For decades, New Orleans’ leaders exhibited an unrelenting commitment to the harshest criminal justice policies imaginable. Even as other major American cities came to terms with the irreparable damage tough-on-crime policies caused, New Orleans did not. The litany of harms caused by our elected officials and police is too familiar.
Philly, Can We Still Be Friends? | By Malcolm Jenkins
Philly, I know we have to go our separate ways….. but can we still be friends? Maybe this sounds crazy — but it really does feel like I’m going through a breakup right now. Like I’m breaking up with my city. And as with anyone unlucky enough to have to go through a breakup during the era of social distancing, I’ve had plenty of opportunity to reflect on our time together. PHILLY. We were together for six years!! You saw me at my best and at my worst.
New Orleans Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins joins CNN as contributor
8h ago TSN.ca Staff Malcolm Jenkins , Mitchell Leff/Getty Images CNN announced on Monday that veteran New Orleans Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins will be joining the network as a contributor. "Now more than ever, the public needs to be educated on the roles of elected positions of power, such as the district attorney, police chief or city council and how to hold those individuals accountable, especially through their voice and their vote," Jenkins said in a statement.
These Saints stars' Twitter followings changed after refusing to 'stick to sports'; here's how
When confronted with the prospect of losing a majority of his Twitter followers if he continued to share his thoughts on social justice issues, former LSU star Alex Bregman didn't hesitate to send a clear answer. If speaking up "loses me followers," said the Houston Astros infielder, "then I hope I lose them." It's a message that's been sent clearly across the pro sports landscape in recent weeks and especially among New Orleans Saints players, even if not explicitly stated.
Former Eagle Malcolm Jenkins Expects More Players To Kneel During National Anthem This Season, Says NFL Must Apologize To Colin Kaepernick
By Pat GallenJune 9, 2020 at 5:39 pm PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Last week, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said the league was wrong for not listening to players about their complaints about social injustice. Former Eagles’ safety Malcolm Jenkins says Goodell’s apology isn’t enough. Jenkins posted an emotional video last week following comments from Saints teammate Drew Brees.
Why I march: I don’t want police violence supported by my tax dollars | Malcolm Jenkins
I am a black man. I live comfortably. I have a career most could only imagine. I’m a business owner. I’m famous. I have privilege. And yet, I am still afraid. I’m afraid because I am very aware that my wealth and life achievements will not introduce me when confronted with police authority. Instead, my skin will do that. Then I am, simply, black. And being black in the eyes of far too many police officers means my dignity and my life is not worth protecting.
Why Malcolm Jenkins has always meant so much to Saints
www.espn.com - New Orleans Saints Guest METAIRIE, La. -- Sean Payton has made a number of glowing comments about Malcolm Jenkins over the years that made it clear just how much he missed his former safety after the New Orleans Saints let him go in 2014. Like when the coach said in 2018, “That was probably as big a personnel mistake as we’ve made in my 13 years here." And when he said, "Should have never let him leave to begin with," when he confirmed that Jenkins was coming back last week.
Philly, Can We Still Be Friends? By Malcolm Jenkins
It’s been a privilege to wear the Midnight Green, and it’s been an honor to represent you. www.theplayerstribune.com Great read into Malcolm's journal indeed. Enjoy. It's amazing to realize that you have so many leaders on that defense: Cam Jordan, Demario Davis, and Malcolm Jenkins? "I know that Drew wants to go Full Legend, and get another big ring before he rides off into the sunset….. and I’ll tell you what: I’m here to help that come to fruition."

When picking new police commissioner, Mayor Kenney must listen to real Philadelphians | Malcolm Jenkins
Congrats to Mayor Kenney for his reelection. During his campaign, he promised to be accountable to the people, and that starts with the appointment of the Philadelphia police commissioner. The community wants massive change, both to the culture of the police department and to the way people are policed. It is now on Kenney to deliver. I could feel the community’s anger over the state of the Philadelphia Police Department at a recent forum we hosted on policing in this city.
Malcolm Jenkins, Players Coalition Tackle Police Brutality In New Public Service Announcement
By CBS3 StaffNovember 6, 2019 at 6:50 pm PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins and the Players Coalition are tackling police brutality. On Wednesday, they released a public service announcement as part of their new Responsibility Program. The first PSA is centered around Danroy “DJ” Henry. The former Pace University football player was fatally shot by a police officer in Mount Pleasant, New York, in 2010.
Threads Report: Malcolm Jenkins
At The Players’ Tribune, we know it’s not just what you wear on the field, but what you wear off of it. That’s why we’ve created Threads Report, a series where we ask our contributors to look inside their closets, suitcases, lockers and whatever else — and share some items they’ve had in heavy rotation. Here with the latest Threads Report is Eagles safety (and Sandlot enthusiast) Malcolm Jenkins. * Ostrich-Skin Bowtie Listen: I’ve been wearing bowties since 2010.
A Time for Action
What now? Like so many others, I’ve been asking myself that question a lot since the election. As someone who has been working to bring people of different backgrounds and perspectives together for meaningful, substantive dialogue about how we can improve society, I found the rhetoric Donald Trump used during the campaign extremely disappointing. But, you know what?

Malcolm Jenkins and Chris Long: Philly DA Larry Krasner deserves support from media, legislature | Opinion
As advocates for criminal justice reform, we were encouraged to see The Inquirer’s Editorial Board stand up for District Attorney Larry Krasner last week in an editorial criticizing a new measure that seizes the district attorney’s authority to enforce laws in the manner that best serves the people of Philadelphia, who elected him to office in 2017.
Fix parole and probation to stop sending people back to prison on technicalities
Meek Mill went back to prison on a probation violation. (Jefferson Siegel / New York Daily News) As America’s incarceration rate rose five-fold over the last four decades, concern with mass incarceration among policy makers, formerly incarcerated people, advocates and, yes, athletes, has also grown. But few paid attention to our mass supervision system, which keeps 4.5 million Americans under state surveillance and often leads them straight back to jail and prison.
NFL activists: Nation should follow Philly's lead on bail reform, nonviolent charges
Last year, Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner stopped seeking cash bail for a variety of nonviolent charges, including drug possession and prostitution. Altogether, there were 25 charges for which cash bail was eliminated, and they amounted to 61 percent of the number of cases brought in Philadelphia in 2018. A report out this month shows that Krasner’s reforms worked. In fact, his plan shines as a model for cities across the nation to follow.

Punishing poverty: How Philly’s cash bail system does more harm than good | Opinion
I've witnessed this system first hand, when my teammates and I watched bail hearings in the basement of the Criminal Justice Center. The stakes at these hearings could not be higher: the chance to fight for your freedom outside a jail or time in a cage, release to a job and family or loss of employment and support. And yet it is a farce to pretend that there is justice in that room. The people charged are not brought into court; they appear via television.
Why We Must Treat and Not Jail Addiction
Vote Yes on 1: Why We Must Treat and Not Jail Addiction Mass incarceration is the most urgent civil rights issue of our time. America’s stubborn commitment to the failed war on drugs, tough-on-crime policies, and lengthy prison sentences has resulted in the caging of a breathtaking number of black and brown people.
Eagles' Jenkins: Headlines, spotlight won't stop activism
SUNBURY-ON-THAMES, England — Philadelphia Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins does not believe the heated exchange he had with the Carolina Panthers' Eric Reid diminishes the impact of his fight for racial and social justice. Jenkins, the face of the Players' Coalition, and Reid, a former member, shouted at each other during and after the Eagles' 21-17 home loss on Sunday.
Baker Mayfield shines in debut and other takeaways from Week 1 of NFL preseason
It’s always dangerous to read too much into the NFL preseason, but it’s hard not to get excited when a rookie leaves a strong first impression. That’s exactly what Baker Mayfield did on Thursday in his first showing as a pro as the first overall pick flashed his talent and potential for the Cleveland Browns in the 20-10 win over the New York Giants. Tyrod Taylor received the start and looked impressive in his own right, completing all five of his passes for 99 yards and a touchdown.
