Following Minnesota's Monday night loss to the Buffalo Bills, will the Vikings make a push for Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones before the NFL trade deadline arrives?

The Vikings are 6-2 on the season and have an excellent defense, but have struggled at the quarterback position all season. Against the Bills, Carson Wentz was 8 for 25, for 81 yards, with two interceptions, as the Minnesota offense mustered only six points.

According to Ian Rapoport, the Vikings are going to "explore their options" at quarterback, which could include calling the Colts about Jones.

"Daniel Jones, who obviously was in their building a couple years ago on their practice squad, playing still for the Colts, a Colts season that has gone opposite of where they want to go. Those are two pretty solid options who could be had for draft pick compensation that wouldn't kill the Vikings. I would expect them to at least look into it tomorrow (Tuesday)."

Rapoport mentioned Raiders' quarterback Kirk Cousins as another player that the Vikings could check in on.

Now, the Vikings can call, but whether or not the Colts will be interested remains to be seen. According to The Ringer's Tom Pelissero, the Colts informed Jones on Saturday that they wouldn't be trading him.

While Jones' contract is tradable, the Colts would earn a lot more in cap savings by moving on from him in the offseason vs. trading him now. Perhaps that factors into the decision-making.
