The Vikings QB situation could gain clarity quickly. The post Vikings QB Daniel Jones Gets Good News Before Free Agency appeared first on Heavy Sports.

Daniel Jones is set to hit free agency. Should the Minnesota Vikings look to bring him back for the 2025 season?

Daniel Jones is the Vikings' emergency No. 3 quarterback for tonight's wild card playoff game against the Rams in Arizona. Nick Mullens remains Sam Darnold's backup. Head coach Kevin O'Connell left open the possibility earlier this week of Jones surpassing Mullens as the team's No.

McCarthy missed his entire rookie campaign with a knee injury that could impact his readiness next year and he has yet to take a regular season snap in the NFL. Jones could sign a one-year contract with the Vikings similar to the $10 million deal Darnold inked in 2024 and serve as a backup and/or bridge QB to McCarthy.

The Minnesota take on the LA Rams in Monday’s Wild Card game, with the former Giants QB promoted to the active roster.

Vikings quarterback Daniel Jones was activated to the 53-man roster in time for the playoffs, but Kevin O'Connell has kept his role hushed.

Would Minnesota get the most value by franchise-tagging its quarterback? Who actually makes the final decisions on draft night?

Quarterback Sam Darnold was a shell of himself over the team's final two games, committing three turnovers and getting sacked 11 times despite throwing for a combined 411 yards and a single touchdown.
