Following Daniel Jones' signing to the Minnesota Vikings' practice squad, rumors are starting to swirl about the future of stating quarterback Sam Darnold.
Darnold will be a free agent at the end of this season, with rookie J.J. McCarthy the only quarterback under contract for 2025, making the future uncertain. As Darnold leads the Vikings to a 9-2 season, his value is sure to rise heading into free agency, with the market for the 27-year-old expected to be competitive, according to Russini.
Darnold's return next season remains a possibility as McCarthy recovers from knee surgery, while Jones focuses on developing behind a strong coaching staff.
