Would he sign for only one year?
Now that Arron Rodgers is going to get released the speculation is ramping up. I would not mind if the Vikings signed him to be honest. I am not sure they will be able to bring back Darnold or Jones. I think they both will get fairly significant deals north of 20M per year. Rodgers might sign for 10-15M for one year? If not, then they can grab some other veteran like Jameis Winston or Cooper Rush.
I do not see it being a good thing with this fan base for the team to bring in any veteran that AMY start over JJ. The fan base will be calling for JJ after every three and out or interception. We all know that JJ will not go three and out or throw any picks right? Cray cray.

Vikings Get Surprising News on Former MVP to Replace Sam Darnold
The Minnesota Vikings are in the market to find a veteran replacement for Sam Darnold.
Minnesota will be searching for a veteran insurance plan to protect McCarthy from being rushed into action too early.
And, according to oddsmakers, the Vikings have a good shot at landing Aaron Rodgers, to the chagrin of many in Minnesota. DraftKings Sportsbook has the Vikings with the fourth-best odds of landing Rodgers at +400, an implied probability of 20%.
The top-four favorites to land Rodgers have quarterback questions. The Pittsburgh Steelers lead the group with +200 odds, followed by the Las Vegas Raiders (+300), San Francisco 49ers (+350) and Minnesota (+400).
There is quite a gap after that. The Indianapolis Colts (+650), Los Angeles Rams and Tennessee Titans (+850) and New York Giants (+1200) are the next teams favored — all longshots compared to the top four.
“Big scoopage: Aaron Rodgers flew back to New Jersey last week to meet with the Jets about his future with the team, only to be told that the team was moving on from him,” Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reported on February 9. “That means that he will be a June 1 designation that allows him to sign with any team in the league on March 12, if he decides to continue to play. Given that Aaron made the effort to fly back to discuss his future, all signs point to him continuing to play. It just won’t be for the Jets.”
5 reasons why Aaron Rodgers could be magical in Minnesota
1. Complete the Brett Favre cycle
If it happens, it will be hard to ignore the chances of Jordan Love playing for the Vikings in 15 years because Rodgers would be the second consecutive Packers legendary quarterback to play for the Jets and Vikings after departing Green Bay. Like Favre, Rodgers didn’t have success in New York. Will he be like Favre and rebound with an MVP-caliber season with Minnesota? It may be written in the stars...
2. Rodgers might play for cheap
