Former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is signing with the Minnesota Vikings, a source told ESPN on Wednesday.
Jones became a free agent Monday after clearing waivers following a mutual decision to move on from New York. Sources had told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that Jones preferred to sign with a playoff contender, with the Vikings among his potential destinations.
In Minnesota, Jones will serve as a backup to Sam Darnold, another former New York quarterback. Darnold has revitalized his career with the Vikings, leading them to a 9-2 record in his first season with the team.
