SCHEFTER: Vikings Have Informed Aaron Jones, Javon Hargrave of Their Release

20 comments

1. Nothing surprising here so far. Kinda expected

2. I’ve always found it hard to trust Schefter, it seems like he wants to be first to report not always accurate. No mention of cutting Jonathan Allen either?

   Plus, it’s wild to me that we would cut Jones without a solid pass blocking replacement for him and CJ Ham.

3. Sad to see Aaron Jones go but it’s completely understandable. He’s been pretty solid like you said when he’s healthy. I think they should both sign a free agent and draft a running back

4. I know Jones was up and down but he will be a tough RB to replace. I figured give him one more season but.. Could save face by drafting a good RB.. Mason cant do it by himself! I sure hope we know what we are doing.! SKOL Jones!

5. I expected this…not surprised at all… we need to see what Miami wants for Devon achane

6. Aaron Jones Sr.? [..sigh…] 🫤 I hope they can re-sign Jones Sr. for less (with incentives), because he still can make valuable contributions. And yes, the Vikes must find a 3-down RB who can catch the ball & protect the QB! 🤔I wish Hargrave well, but he was not a good fit for Flores' scheme & what the Vikes wanted from him.🤔 Question: Is there a deadline date if the Vikes want to re-structure some contracts?

7. Now do Ryan Kelly

8. cut kelly and allen

9. Hockenson's contract is 21.3-21.6 million for 2026. Unless he comes down I think he's cut too.

10. The fact we didn't have a NT this long shows Kwesi was playing GM on Madden 😂

11. Aww man. March on my vikings calendar is Aaron Jones.

12. I want Kayden mcdonald

13. The jones cut will be really disappointing , it was a lot of fun watching him this year

14. So sorry to see Aaron Jones go. But that’s the harsh reality of “business “😢

15. this team has huge holes everywhere , no deapth, no QB, and no GM. oconnell should just start packing now

16. FIX UR MIC

17. Bummer to see Jones going but is what it is. I had fun watching him tbh, good luck to both.

18. We’re going to miss Jones as a 3rd down back. Can block can catch. For just $7M against cap

19. Plain & Simple, Kwesi failed us, due to far to many top 100 draft pick misses that are not even on the roster. He was forced to sign older players with injuries & or no longer what they were.

20. Jones was a good guy and I want to see him find a place to play and have success
