Dead Body Reportedly Found at Home of Giants CB Janoris Jenkins

Police in Bergen County, New Jersey, have launched an investigation after a body was found at the home of New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins, TMZ Sports reported Tuesday.

According to the report, a worker at Jenkins' house discovered the body in the basement Tuesday morning and alerted authorities. Police have yet to identify the victim, and Jenkins reportedly was traveling out of state when police arrived at the scene.

ESPN's Dianna Russini provided additional information:

I’ve also learned Janoris Jenkins had family staying at that home...he had plans to return to New Jersey today to deal with this situation but he may stay in Florida. #Giants

Also last night in NJ, a man claiming to be Janoris Jenkins’ brother was on a Jet Blue flight to Fort Lauderdale from Newark to allegedly meet up with Janoris. The man caused delays because he was too scared to fly according to witnesses I spoke to. He got off the plane #giants

Dennis Calo, an assistant prosecutor in Bergen County, said the victim was a male but that police are withholding the identity until they can first alert his next of kin, per the Daily Voice's Jerry DeMarco.

Jenkins is entering his third season with the Giants after signing a five-year, $62.5 million deal with the team in 2016.

Although Jenkins owns a home in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, Russini reported he has been in Florida since the Giants' mandatory minicamp ended June 14.

The Giants provided a statement to NJ Advance Media's Matt Lombardo regarding Tuesday's news: "We are aware of it, and we are monitoring the situation."

I'm guessing this is a little more than a 3 game suspension from the league if he's found to be involved somehow.

Holy smokes and macaroni. Hope it wasn't anything to do with him. Wondering if has anything to do with drugs or not. Awful, just awful.

I know, right? One booze filled night, and other body in th basement...it’s ok in the spring and fall but too hot to bury the body in summer, and the ground is frozen in the winter,

And you call your self a Canadian...pftfft. a little ground frost never slowed me down when I needed to dig....

On a more serious note....who the heck do you have staying at your place that would end up with a dead body in the basement. I do hope that this does not turn out to be a family member who's committed suicide. This is not the way which you'd want to be notified of something that close to home.

Sounds like his brother got into an argument with Janoris' friend and ended up killing him. Sounds like it was probably an accident, but he's going to be serving some serious time.
