Minnesota. You mentioned that as a potential landing spot for Aaron Rodgers. Sam Darnold
00:04
was the guy there this past year, but the face of the franchise moving forward is certainly J.J.
00:09
McCarthy. Sam Darnold was not placed under the franchise tag, you know, by the Vikings earlier
00:15
this week, meaning he is fully a free agent. We can talk about how much in just a moment.
00:21
First question is where, where do you believe Sam Darnold is playing his NFL football in 2025?
00:27
Whoever the last person is without a chair is where Sam Darnold will end up. I mean,
00:34
I just think everybody understands that the final two games that we saw, the most important two
00:40
games that we saw from Sam Darnold was the Jets version of Sam Darnold who showed up,
00:46
and that should scare the hell out of any GM who's looking to put him onto some sort of deal here.
00:51
And again, I don't think if you're signing Sam Darnold, it's for more than two years anyway.
00:55
Like at this point, there's no reason, there's not enough track record
00:59
to believe that his investment is going to be worthwhile. Like that's just the reality. And
01:03
again, you can take that as a knock on Sam Darnold, but there's a lot more proof of bad
01:08
throughout his career than there is the 16 games of good that he gave you in a Vikings uniform.
01:14
So, and look, the Vikings are kind of wise. Didn't they live that existence already with
01:17
Case Keenum for one year where they had a fantastic year and then all of a sudden they said, you know
01:21
what? Hey, we're not going to go in this direction again. So I would trust the Vikings judgment here
01:26
on this one. I don't know where he plays. I think genuinely whoever is left without a seat at the
01:31
table when the music stops is going to turn to Sam Darnold and go, here's a two-year deal,
01:35
come play quarterback for us kind of deal.
