That's far from a myth. That same knee was an issue at Oklahoma, kept him out basically all of last year, kept him out of all OTAs, and the start of training camp this year. The myth is that his knee if totally fine now. I need to see more than a month of good health from him to feel comfortable about that knee moving forward.

Anyway, not to hijack the thread...

I love what I've seen from Marko. He's got great size and very good speed. He's making this team for sure, and once he polishes up his route running and playbook knowledge, we may have ourselves a heckuva player.

If the season started TODAY, I'd feel comfortable with him being the recipient of some jump balls in the end zone.
