Vikings cut ties with Molasses Mike Jenkins
Michael Jenkins - WR - Unsigned Free Agent
March 4, 2013 - 5:20 PM ET
Vikings released WR Michael Jenkins.
Jenkins was due an $825,000 salary, but the Vikings made sure to cut him before his $2.425 million March roster bonus came due. Per beat writer Tom Pelissero, the Jenkins move clears $3.25 million in cap space. Turning 31 in June, "Molasses Mike" has been an ineffective pass catcher for quite some time. He could resurface elsewhere as a No. 4 wideout who plays on blocking downs.
