It's March 4th. Here's your NFL news in two minutes. Subscribe to stay locked in all season. The Minnesota Vikings are dealing with big questions at quarterback after JJ McCarthy's tough rookie season in 2025. The young starter dealt with injuries and shaky play, leaving the team unsure about his future heading into 2026. Earlier this week, talk heated up about a possible reunion with Dana Jones. The former Colt was on track for his best year ever, before a torn Achilles side-mind him. Interestingly, Jones had spent time with the Vikings just last season before moving on. Analysts like ESPN's Peter Schrager pointed to Minnesota as a team to watch. He noted the Vikings seemed caught off guard by the hefty deal, the Colt handed Jones last off season, right around when Sam Darnold also left town. In a key move, the Colt slapped the transition tag on Jones before the deadline. That opens a short window for him to chat with other teams, including the Vikings, though Indianapolis can match any offer they get.

For now, the Vikings have plenty of pass forward as they rethink life after McCarthy. This tag situation keeps their options wide open in a busy free agency period. A quick thank you to our sponsor of today's episode. What is cooler than cool? A pillow that plays your sound? S-O-L-I-SoliPillo.com.
