    The New England Patriots typically bring a ton of veteran wide receivers into training camp, and then let them battle it out for a roster spot. On Thursday, they brought another familiar name aboard.

    The team will sign former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Michael Jenkins, a source informed of the move told NFL.com's Ian Rapoport.

    Jenkins caught 40 passes last season and has averaged 40-per-year over the last three seasons as the ultimate possession receiver for the Vikings and Atlanta Falcons.

    He's got a chance to make the Patriots because they are thin at wide receiver with Danny Amendola and Donald Jones currently atop the depth chart.

    Cletusaurus YES! YES! YES!

    I wonder if bringing back Lloyd isn't as "obvious" as people thought when they refused to pay the roster bonus, or if this is just as the article states- yet another offseason where a glut of receivers are brought in. Do they still have Moss' number?
