The Minnesota Vikings have agreed to a one-year contract with free-agent RB Aaron Jones that will pay him $7M in 2024.

After signing Josh Jacobs to a four-year, $48M contract on the first day of free agency, it was reported that the Packers were working with Jones to restructure his contract for the second time in as many years. A few hours later, Jones was released. Jones wasn’t out of a job for long, as he signed with his former division rival Minnesota Vikings the next day. Whether or not Jones had other offers on the table has not come to light, but the quick signing could be meant to send a message. Now the Packers will have to face Jones twice a year, and you can bet that he will want to make sure that his former team knows they chose to pay the wrong guy.

The Times They Are A-Changin’: Will a New Coaching Staff Help Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the Seahawks’ Receivers Fly High in 2024?

POP QUIZ, HOTSHOT: Who was the Seattle Seahawks’ last head coach prior to Pete Carroll getting the job in 2010? THE ANSWER: Jim Mora Jr.? Yes, Mora Jr. had one forgettable (at least to me, apparently) 5-11 season as the head coach of the Seahawks following Mike Holmgren’s 10-year run in the Pacific Northwest. Maybe I’m the one getting old, but I find it hard…...
