Summary
Kevin O'Connell said any decision on pursuing a quarterback trade before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline rests with GM Nolan Teasley after Minnesota's Monday night collapse.
Carson Wentz fueled the scrutiny by completing 8 of 25 passes for 81 yards with two interceptions in the 23-6 loss to Buffalo, finishing with an 8.9 passer rating.
O'Connell said the Vikings have discussed possible moves at multiple positions but, on the short turnaround after the Monday game, gave no indication a deal was imminent.
The loss sharply changed the mood around a season that was still viewed as promising nine days earlier, putting pressure on Minnesota to act if it wants to stabilize the offense.
