Jones landed as a backup on 9-2 Vikings, and spoke to reporters Friday about why he chose to sign there.
“You look at offensively what they’ve been able to do, the system, coach [Kevin] O’Connell and his staff. Just a lot of good things happening across the board as a team and organization, and on offense especially,” Jones said, as covered by Sports Illustrated. “Just excited to join that and help out where I can.”
Jones will be backing up Sam Darnold, a fellow former first-round pick who flamed out of New York after three years with the Jets.
