Hankerson tore the labrum in his hip when the joint popped out and back in when he was tackled late in a loss to the Miami Dolphins on Nov. 13. He did not have surgery until late February because doctors wanted first to see if the hip would heal without a procedure. HC Mike Shanahan has spoken highly of Hankerson this offseason after he had 13 catches for 163 yards in four games (two starts) in 2011. Coaches expect the second-year receiver out of the University of Miami to be one of their top playmakers, and he could compete with free agent acquisition Josh Morgan for a starting spot.
