“The word going into last night was the Vikings would be in the QB market ahead of the trade deadline if Carson Wentz didn’t play well,” Garafolo said. Narrator voice: He didn’t. Wentz was an utter disaster in Monday night’s loss to the Bills, completing 8-of-25 passes for 81 yards and two interceptions in the team’s second straight loss. Wentz in Week 9 had the league’s lowest drop back EPA and lowest success rate. He also appeared to sustain an ankle injury in the second half. With Kyler Murray (hamstring) struggling mightily in Kevin O’Connell’s offense, the Vikings could make a desperation move for Kirk Cousins or Daniel Jones ahead of today’s 4:00 p.m. eastern time trade deadline. Cousins, for one, would be a marked upgrade for Justin Jefferson and the Minnesota pass catchers. The Raiders have not expressed interest in parting with Cousins, however.
