Jenkins NAMED IN THE 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN PHILADELPHIA
Philadelphia magazine’s ranking of the 100 people shaping the way we think, talk, work and live right now.
MALCOLM JENKINS
Heavy Hitter
SWATH OF INFLUENCE: Vast. The Eagles safety is the team’s on-field leader and its conscience, raising a fist for social justice long before President Trump inadvertently united the entire NFL around the issue. Off the field, Jenkins presides over a bow-tie line (Rock Avenue), a men’s store (Damari Savile) and a foundation. BACKSTORY: At Ohio State, Jenkins was in the African-American frat Omega Psi Phi; he has the Greek letters tattooed on his arm. WHY PHILADELPHIANS LOVE HIM: Swagger and smarts.
