More quarterbacks are starting games than ever before. So why do so many NFL teams lack a backup plan?
Not at all saying the injury was “good”. And to me, Darnold seems like an ideal bridge QB: someone they could get for a short contract on a budget while they get JJ ready. It may not necessarily be pleasant to suggest the team is basically writing off a year before Week 1, but they’re clearly looking at the long term rather than the short term. It’s a pain that we Vikings fans will just have to live with this season, but we’re quite used to pain, lol.
