Vikings backup quarterback Daniel Jones said Saturday he’s “preparing for whatever the situation is” at No. 2 quarterback Monday night in the wild-card game against the Los Angeles Rams. It was the first time the ex-Giants starter spoke publicly since the week he arrived in Minnesota.

The backdrop of this whole conversation surrounding the depth chart is the fact that quarterback Sam Darnold struggled mightily last weekend when the Vikings suffered a 31-9 loss to the Detroit Lions. He only completed 18 of 41 passes for 166 yards and he did not throw a touchdown.

The Minnesota Vikings are considering a significant shake-up to their quarterback depth chart, one that would put newcomer Daniel Jones in position to play if starter Sam Darnold is injured or ineffective in the playoffs.
