http://www.yardbarker.com/rss/player/3827 Recent articles about Wes Welker en-us I posted an article on Canal Street Chronicles about Malcolm Jenkins, which you can read by clicking HERE. He'll likely start Monday night against the Patriots and have his hands full covering either Randy Moss or Wes Welker. Nothing will make him ready for the test he's about to face, so he'll be thrown into the fire. It will be a very interesting thing to watch for!
