Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins (ACL surgery) has "hardly demonstrated the power that made him so impressive last summer," according to the Washington Times.

"We're 10 practices into camp, and I still haven't seen him produce a moment that reminds me of last summer," says beat writer Rich Campbell. Jenkins was emerging as the Skins' top lineman as a rookie before the ACL tear. He may have to come off the bench behind Adam Carriker and Stephen Bowen this time around.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

According to the Washington Post, Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins' (ACL surgery) "power and explosiveness" have returned this offseason.

The No. 41 pick last season, Jenkins turned heads with a strong camp before going down in the third preseason game. "He’s got a little brace on his knee, but he’s been taking all the reps and doing extremely well," coach Mike Shanahan said. Jenkins is expected to rotate with both LE Adam Carriker and RE Stephen Bowen this season.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins (ACL surgery) is participating in OTAs at full speed, with a brace on his surgically repaired right knee.

As a second-round rookie last year, Jenkins practiced like the Skins' best defensive lineman in training camp before tearing the ACL in preseason. He was medically cleared before the draft and will push Adam Carriker for a starting job.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins (ACL surgery) revealed Wednesday that he has been medically cleared to resume football activities.

The 41st pick in last April's draft, Jenkins missed his rookie season with a torn right ACL suffered in the preseason. If Jenkins' explosion is all the way back, he should be able to overtake Adam Carriker for a starting job.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Pro Football Weekly suggests Jarvis Jenkins could open the season as the Redskins' starting left defensive end.

Jenkins was the star of Washington's training camp before suffering a season-ending ACL injury, and incumbent starter Adam Carriker is not likely to be retained this offseason. With the return of a healthy Jenkins, the Redskins' defensive line will be much improved in 2012.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins (ACL surgery) is expected to participate in offseason conditioning work this spring.

Per coach Mike Shanahan, the 2011 second-rounder remains ahead of schedule in his recovery. In late October, DC Jim Haslett estimated Jenkins could have played late in the season had he not been placed on injured reserve. Jenkins was a training camp sensation before suffering the injury in preseason action.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins (injured reserve, torn ACL) underwent successful surgery on Wednesday, and has been given a recovery timeline of 4-to-6 months.

The second-round pick went down in Washington's third preseason game. He should enter Redskins training camp next summer in the running for a starting job.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins has been diagnosed with a torn right ACL.

It's a tough pill to swallow for the Redskins. Jenkins was one of the stars of camp, showing raw yet explosive skills while playing the two-gap end spot in the 3-4. The No. 41 overall pick is now done for the season, leaving Adam Carriker as the likely starter opposite Stephen Bowen at defensive end. The Skins' defense projects to improve this season, but it's still an awfully thin unit.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins second-round DE Jarvis Jenkins said doctors told him "it feels like my ACL's a little loose" after going down in Thursday's preseason game.

Jenkins is holding his breath that it's not an ACL tear, but the signs aren't positive. He left the stadium on crutches and a knee brace, and said he felt something "pop." For now, it's being called a knee sprain.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins DE Jarvis Jenkins went to the locker room with an apparent knee injury in the second quarter Thursday night.

It didn't look good. Jenkins started the game over Adam Carriker and was having a very strong camp.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

The Redskins announced Friday that second-round pick Jarvis Jenkins would start their second preseason game over Adam Carriker.

Carriker was one of the Skins' few defenders to hold his own last season, but Jenkins has looked beastly in camp. The rookie will start at left end, across from Stephen Bowen. Washington's front seven will be much improved this year.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Second-round DE Jarvis Jenkins has been the early star of Redskins camp.

The Redskins may have more beat writers covering the team than other club in the NFL, and all of them have sung Jenkins' praises. "I don’t want to put the kiss of death on Jarvis, but he’s what you look for in a defensive lineman," said coach Mike Shanahan. "He's got great size. You can tell that he's a student of the game. He goes out there and works extremely hard, extremely conscientious, and he's going to get better and better."

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

The Redskins confirmed that second-rounder Jarvis Jenkins will be a two-gap end in Jim Haslett's 3-4 scheme.

Coach Mike Shanahan calls Jenkins the "prototype 3-4 defensive end," and the former Clemson star should be plugged right into the starting lineup opposite a rotation of Adam Carriker and Vonnie Holliday. The Redskins picked up as many six or seven rookie starters in the draft.

Jarvis Jenkins - DL - Redskins

Redskins selected Clemson DE Jarvis Jenkins with the No. 41 overall pick in the 2011 NFL draft.

Jenkins, a 4-3 tackle for the Tigers, will be a 3-4 end for the Redskins at 6-foot-4 and 309 pounds. He finished his career with an impressive 31 tackles for loss, although sacks were hard to come by for Jenkins with Da'Quan Bowers and Ricky Sapp stealing the majority of them. Still, the pick will be panned for good reason. The Redskins have a boatload of needs, and Jenkins doesn't project as an especially high-impact defender. Torrey Smith could've added a real field-stretching element to their offense.

Depth Charts

Skill Players
Pos	Role	Name
QB	1	Robert Griffin III Sidelined According to the Washington Examiner, Robert Griffin III was putting more pressure on his surgically-repaired knee in Thursday's OTAs session than he was before going down in Washington's Wild Card loss to Seattle. It's a cruel reminder of how limited RGIII was even before his knee finally gave out on FedEx Field's embarrassing turf. As reported Thursday, Griffin expects to start "explosive sprinting" in just a matter of weeks. It's not fair to compare RGIII's recovery to Adrian Peterson's, but thus far it's mirroring it. May 24
	2	Kirk Cousins
	3	Rex Grossman
	4	Pat White
RB	1	Alfred Morris
	2	Evan Royster
	3	Roy Helu Sidelined Redskins RB Roy Helu (Achilles', toe) is sitting out OTAs. He's doing rehab work on the side. Helu is in danger of losing his roster spot just two years after being a fourth-round pick. As a rookie, he rushed for 100-plus yards in three consecutive games late in the season. Ever since, Helu has been unable to say healthy, and Alfred Morris has seized the starting job. May 24
	4	Chris Thompson Sidelined Redskins agreed to terms with No. 154 overall pick RB Chris Thompson on a four-year contract. Recovering from an October ACL tear, Thompson is questionable for the beginning of training camp. Thompson is a thimble of a football player at 5-foot-7, 192 pounds, but coach Mike Shanahan believes he would have been a first- or second-round pick if not for his injury. That's because of his electric speed. Thompson could eventually make noise as a scat/third-down back, but will most likely be "redshirted" this season. May 15
	5	Jawan Jamison
GLB	1	Alfred Morris
	2	Evan Royster
3RB	1	Alfred Morris
	2	Evan Royster
FB	1	Darrel Young
	2	Dorson Boyce I.L. Redskins FB Dorson Boyce (shoulder) could be cleared for contact this week. Boyce tore his labrum in the preseason finale last year. The 24-year-old rushed ten times for 44 yards in exhibition action last season. He could compete for a special teams role or a spot on the practice squad. Apr 20
	3	Eric Kettani
WR1	1	Pierre Garcon Sidelined Updating a previous item, Pierre Garcon underwent "minor" labrum surgery in January. Coach Mike Shanahan initially said Garcon underwent "chest" surgery. The labrum is part of the shoulder. Garcon is reportedly healthy right now, but he isn't participating in team drills at OTAs as a "precaution." Entering his age-27 season, Garcon should be all systems go for training camp. May 23
	2	Santana Moss
	3	Aldrick Robinson
	4	Skye Dawson
	5	Chip Reeves
WR2	1	Josh Morgan Sidelined Josh Morgan had ligaments in each of his hands repaired after the season. Tack this issue on top of ongoing concerns surrounding Morgan's right leg issues. After appearing to lack burst last season, he had surgery to remove a plate and seven screws from his right ankle in January. Morgan may not be ready for OTAs. Feb 27
	2	Leonard Hankerson
	3	Dezmon Briscoe
	4	Nick Williams
	5	Lance Lewis
WR3	1	Santana Moss
TE	1	Fred Davis Sidelined Fred Davis (Achilles') was catching passes and running routes as the Redskins opened OTAs Thursday. Like Robert Griffin III (knee), Davis was not in uniform and worked off to the side. It's still encouraging to see him pivoting and moving well seven months after blowing out his heel. Beat writer Chris Russell said Davis "looks better than I thought." The pass-catching tight end says he's at 90 percent now and expects to be 100 percent by June's minicamps. May 23
	2	Logan Paulsen
	3	Jordan Reed Sidelined Redskins signed No. 85 overall pick TE Jordan Reed to a four-year contract. Undersized at 6-foot-2, 236 pounds, Reed is a blocking-deficient pass catcher. That's why his 4.72 40-yard dash underwhelmed at the Combine. Alas, Reed adds a real receiving threat to a team with in-flux receiver and tight end corps, and has drawn looses comparisons to Aaron Hernandez. If Reed shows well as a rookie, the Redskins could decide to let Fred Davis walk next offseason. May 24
	4	Niles Paul
	5	Deangelo Peterson
K	1	Kai Forbath
