Fans reacted to Jones’s decision on social media.
“Probably a smart move by Minny,” one fan said on Twitter.
“Must be a money thing. Doesn’t seem to make sense from a chance to play for Jones,” one fan added.
“Vikings going to win a SB with Darnold and Danny Dimes and laugh at both the Jets and Giants doing so,” one fan added, noting how the Vikings now have two quarterbacks that used to play in New York.
“Vikings being a rehab for QB’s? I’ll allow it,” one fan added.
It’ll be interesting to see if Jones can get any significant playing time in Minnesota.
