The Vikings seem to be trolling the more gullible members of the national media.

Talking heads claimed that the Vikings were interested in signing Aaron Rodgers.

The Vikings wanted Aaron. And Rodgers. Just not Aaron Rodgers.

They have signed a former Packer named Aaron — running back Aaron Jones.

They have signed a Rodgers — Isaiah Rodgers, who was a backup cornerback for the Eagles last year.

That’s as close as the Vikings should get to Aaron Rodgers, who seems to be spending the twilight of his career auditioning for a particularly ridiculous season of “White Lotus.”
