The Vikings did what they said they would. The post Aaron Jones Sends Strong Message After Vikings Trade With NFC Rival appeared first on Heavy Sports.

The Minnesota Vikings struck gold with veteran Aaron Jones as a free agent before last season. Jones is still around and likely has some more yards left in his legs, but Minnesota is already thinking about its depth at the position as well as the future.

The 49ers have agreed to trade running back Jordan Mason to the Minnesota Vikings, his agency told ESPN. In exchange, the Niners receive a 2026 sixth-round pick. On top of that, the two clubs are also swapping Day 3 selections in the 2025 NFL Draft.

The Minnesota Vikings have agreed to terms on a two-year, $20 million contract with running back Aaron Jones that prevents the popular veteran from reaching free agency after a solid debut with his former rival.

Aaron Rodgers reportedly prefers to sign with the Minnesota Vikings in free agency, but whether the team wants the veteran quarterback is still up in the air. Per The Athletic's Mike Silver, head coach Kevin O'Connell is torn on if he wants to bring in Rodgers.

The Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback room will look vastly different in 2025. Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones, and Nick Mullens have all agreed to terms with new teams, leaving J.J. McCarthy as the only familiar face.
