  Vikings | E.J. Henderson still productive despite limited role    Fri Feb 3, 09:24 PM

Minnesota Vikings LB E.J. Henderson (knee) had swelling in his left knee in the second game of the season, and never seemed the same in space. He was reduced to a part-time role around midseason to ease stress on the knee, but he still ended up second on the team in tackles with 130, including 81 solo stops and 16 tackles for loss. He is likely to draw interest on the open market, but his age and declining mobility with a titanium rod in his leg suggest his days as a three-down player are over.
