New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins, who was signed as a free agent last year, has been vocal with his desire to see the team’s defense stay together in 2017.

Previously, Jenkins publicly campaigned for general manager Jerry Reese to re-sign defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul and defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins, as well as to keep cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie on the roster.

Thus far, it appears as if that’s what Reese intends, with recent reports suggesting JPP, Hankins and linebacker Keenan Robinson are top priorities this offseason. But just in case the Giants needed additional motivation to get those things done, the Jackrabbit supplied it late on Friday night.

For the second time in recent weeks, Jenkins hit Twitter and called for Big Blue to keep its defense completely intact.

Earlier this month, Jenkins told Newsday the Giants have a championship caliber defense, and it would be foolish to split it up after only one season. He urged Jerry Reese to make the right call and do what was necessary to help bring a fifth Lombardi Trophy to East Rutherford.

“It’s not about [the Giants] understanding or hearing me, it’s about winning a championship,” Jenkins said. “You know, you build a defense, you’ve got the pieces, why would you separate them right then when they’re at the peak or about to be the peak and the prime [piece] of the organization? Keep everybody together. That’s why teams don’t ever go back-to- back. Or back-to-back-to-back. Free agency and trades. But keep us together and we’ll make something happen.”

Jenkins hasn’t been the only Giants defender to vocalize a desire to see the same faces in 2017. Defensive tackle Damon Harrison, linebacker Devon Kennard and safety Landon Collins have all encouraged the same thing.
