Miami Dolphins linebacker Jelani Jenkins returns to practice

DAVIE - Nobody on the Miami Dolphins roster has fought through more nagging injuries than linebacker Jelani Jenkins, who is nursing a knee injury that has lingered all season, and is playing with a broken left hand.

Jenkins, who has started 33 games for the Dolphins over the past four seasons, has missed three games this season because of his various injuries. Jenkins, a former University of Florida standout, has only started six of eight games he's played in this season because of his medical issues, which started during training camp.

Jenkins sat out Miami's first two practices this week, but participated in Friday's session, which hints he might be cleared to play on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens.
