The Facts: Following up on a previous item, Minnesota Viking wide receiver Jerome Simpson underwent an MRI on Monday that revealed the weakness/numbness in his lower right leg was related to a back problem. Simpson was limited by the mystery condition during Sunday's win over the Titans. Simpson will undergo further tests on Tuesday.

Diehards Line:If you have room on your bench to stash Simpson until we get an exact diagnosis of his condition and his timetable to return, then we recommend you do so.
