“I’ve had that ankle from last year that still bothers me,” Jenkins said, preparing to give the rundown before the players began their four-day postseason break, with practice resuming Friday. “Then I sprained both ankles. Both knees. Pulled a muscle in my side. Messed up both wrists. Oh yeah, my shoulder. Actually, I did both shoulders. I stung my neck on one side.”
