Malcolm Jenkins

An All-American from the football factory of Ohio State, Malcolm Jenkins was New Orleans’ First Round Pick in 2009, and the Defensive Back was a part of the team that won the Saints’ first ever Super Bowl that year.

Jenkins became a starter at Free Safety the following year, staying with New Orleans until he signed with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2014.  With the Eagles, Jenkins won another Super Bowl, playing a larger role than he did in his Saints’ Title, while individually going to three Pro Bowls.  He rejoined New Orleans in 2020, playing two years before retiring after the 2021 Season.

Jenkins won’t make the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but a 13-year career with two Super Bowl Rings is a solid career.  Throw in his NFLPA Alan Page Community Award, you have one of the most respected players in recent memory.

K.J. Wright

K.J. Wright had a good career at Mississippi State, which led him to be taken 99th Overall in the 2011 Draft by Seattle.

Wright was part of what became a powerful Seahawks defensive unit, that went to back-to-back Super Bowls, winning the first (XLVIII), a blowout win over Denver.  A Pro Bowl Selection once (2016), the strong side Linebacker had five seasons of 100-plus Tackles, including a four-year run from 2015 to 2018.  A Seahawk until 2021, Wright had one final campaign in the NFL with the Raiders before retiring with 13.5 Sacks and 992 Combined Tackles.

Joe Haden

Joe Haden would win the starting Left Cornerback job in Cleveland during his rookie season, and he would later earn Pro Bowl accolades in 2013 and 2014, and recorded 19 Interceptions for the Browns before he signed with division rival Pittsburgh in 2017.

With the Steelers, Haden played five years, netting another ten picks with a third Pro Bowl coming in 2019.  Over his 12 NFL seasons, Haden had 29 Interceptions with 615 Tackles.

Emmanuel Sanders

Enjoying a 12-year career in the NFL, Emmanuel Sanders played his first four seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team that drafted him in the Third Round in 2010.  Sanders did well, but he was not a starter, and he peaked with 740 Yards in 2013, though proved that he should be in the starting lineup. 

Denver won the bidding war for Sanders, who responded with his best season in football, a 1,404 Yard/9 Touchdown performance that elevated Sanders to his first Pro Bowl.  Sanders had at least 1,000 Receiving Yards the next two seasons, and he was a significant factor in Denver marching toward a win in Super Bowl 50.  After his second Pro Bowl with the Broncos in 2016, his play fell off, and he would finish his career with stops in San Francisco, New Orleans and Buffalo.

Sanders retired with 9,245 Receiving Yards and 51 Touchdowns.
