Aaron Rodgers emerging as ‘dark horse’ Vikings option as QB carousel gets latest twist
NY Post
Aaron Rodgers might get a chance to bypass the Giants’ rebuild and follow Brett Favre’s exact path into the Hall of Fame.
As Monday’s start of the legal tampering period in NFL free agency nears, Rodgers has emerged as a “dark horse” option for the Vikings now that Sam Darnold is unlikely to re-sign in Minnesota, NFL Network reported.
In a case of mutual desperation making strange bedfellows, there is interest between the Giants and Rodgers about striking a free-agent deal.
But the Vikings pose an unexpected threat to the union that would allow Rodgers to go from the Packers to the Jets to the Vikings — just like his former teammate Favre did nearly two decades ago.
But that’s not even the ultimate irony in a quarterback carousel with possibilities suddenly spinning out of control.
Consider that Rodgers’ landing spot could be influenced by Daniel Jones’ free-agent decision.
