According to TMZ Sports, a dead body was found inside the Fair Lawn home of New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins.
The body was discovered in the basement by a worker and has yet to be identified. Jenkins is not in New Jersey and has been in Florida, but he and the Giants are aware of the situation — additional details from the report:
We don’t know if cops have identified a suspect or even have a working theory on how the person died.
Sources tell us the body was discovered in the basement by a worker at the house. Law enforcement officers in Bergen County raced to the scene. We’re told the coroner showed up a short time later.
…
The Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office tells TMZ Sports … the dead body is a man, but he’s NOT the owner of the house.
Officials will not release the identity until next of kin have been notified.
ESPN’s Dianna Russini also reports that this is being treated as a homicide investigation:

And included an interesting tidbit on Janoris’ brother acting oddly on a Jet Blue flight:
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
