Jones, who was waived by the New York Giants last week and cleared waivers on Monday, apparently has a "leading" choice of who he wants to sign with next and he'll be "telling teams" on Wednesday, according to a report from NFL insider Josina Anderson, citing league sources. The Vikings are considered one of the favorites to sign Jones.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Vikings’ reported interest in quarterback Daniel Jones, who was recently released by the Giants. Rand goes through the reasons it might make sense even if it doesn’t seem to add up on the surface.

Quarterback Daniel Jones cleared waivers as expected Monday, making him a free agent. Jones now is free to sign with any team. A team claiming him off waivers would have had to pay Jones $11.83 million for the rest of the year and assume $23 million in injury guarantees. The Giants now are responsible for the $11.83 million.
