Vikings coach addresses QB issues after loss to Bills

Summary

Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell spoke on November 10, 2026, regarding the team's quarterback situation following a 23-6 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The defeat marked the Vikings' second consecutive loss after starting the season 6-0, with Carson Wentz's poor performance (8.9 passer rating) highlighting the need for a trade. O’Connell deferred questions about potential trades to general manager Nolan Teasley, confirming discussions about roster moves ahead of the NFL trade deadline later that day. The Vikings previously traded J.J. McCarthy to the New York Giants and are rumored to be pursuing quarterbacks such as Kirk Cousins and Daniel Jones.
