Daniel Jones, recently added to the Minnesota Vikings' active roster, is preparing for his potential role as the backup quarterback in the upcoming wild-card game against the Los Angeles Rams. Speaking to reporters for the first time, he acknowledged the learning experience he’s had under starting quarterback Sam Darnold.

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell has been non-committal about Jones' role, emphasizing that Nick Mullens has held the No. 2 position throughout the season. With Jones not having played since November 10, the team faces the challenge of activating three quarterbacks while managing the roster effectively.
