The Facts: Jenkins said in a text message his torn meniscus in his knee has fully healed and he will be with the team for the start of Organized Team Activities. The Vikings take the field with the coaching staff May 30.
Diehards Line:Pioneer Press beat man Jeremy Fowler reminded readers that Jenkins was on pace for a career year, recording 38 catches for 466 yards and three touchdowns, before missing the final five games of the season with the injury. The torn meniscus required surgery, but recovery is considered much smoother than that of a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Entering his ninth season, the 29-year-old Jenkins will compete with free-agent signee Jerome Simpson for the Vikings' No. 2 receiver spot behind Percy Harvin.
