Sunday could be a bounce back game for Jenkins after his subpar sophomore season in 2013. With quarterback Matt Cassel at the helm of the Vikings’ offense and a spotty receiving corps, Jenkins could find some opportunities to make the same big plays that defined him as one of the best rookies in the NFL in 2012. While many eyes will be on rookie E.J. Gaines, who is expected to start opposite of Jenkins on Sunday, it’s a great chance for Jenkins to re-establish himself as a key member of the defense.
