So Vikings Carson Wentz is having surgery and will be done for the season. The only other QB on the roster is an undrafted rookie. I am hoping they snag CJ from the Lions Practice Squad as they need a capable backup to JJ and it would be great for CJ to get a chance with an offensive line that can hold up and allow him to shine. O'Connell's offense could be good for him.

They should have resign-signed Darnold and kept Jones then traded one of these guys to get compensation to help in the draft. But they are Minnesota.
Darnold look like *** in the two biggest games of the year.

nobody wanted Jones.

Vikings went all in on a rookie QB salary. Hasn’t worked but 2026 is the year they are targeting.

Would love to CJ come back but I think it’s over. He made some pretty good money in the league

He is still making money on the practice squad and I would think he is still much better than an undrafted rookie that I had never even heard of.
