The Facts: According to Jason LaCanfora of CBSSports.com, the Patriots are signing former Viking Jenkins.

Diehards Line: As PFT's Darin Gantt suggests, sometimes, it seems like Bill Belichick does unusual things just to prove that he’s smarter than other people. ... Gantt went on to remind readers the 30-year-old Jenkins can’t really run, and caught 40 passes last season for the Vikings, who weren’t exactly overburdened with depth at his position. He has size and good hands, but lacks the ability to get open. Gantt further suggested it's doubtful Jenkins got much beyond the minimum to sign, which makes it a free look at a moderately productive veteran.
