Won't play in wild-card matchup
Jones (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's wild-card contest against the Rams, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones hurt his knee in Week 17 against Green Bay and didn't suit up for Minnesota's regular-season finale against Detroit. He didn't practice at all this week, so it doesn't appear he was close to being available for Monday's wild-card game. Dallas Turner may get more defensive snaps than usual with Jones sidelined.
