Vikings cornerback Chirs Jones is persona non grata in Minnesota after the team’s loss against the Cowboys.
In the fourth quarter of the Cowboys-Vikings game, Cowboys backup running Tony Pollard busted loose for a long 42-yard touchdown run.

On the play, Jones could be seen making an extremely poor tacke attempt that allowed Pollard to break free for his long run.

Watch Vikings Chris Jones (26). He had no desire to tackle Tony Pollard on this TD run. pic.twitter.com/KUJCuw4T5p

The Cowboys went on to win the game by three points and Vikings fans blamed Jones for the loss.
If the #Vikings miss the playoffs by one game, a defining moment will be reserve cornerback Chris Jones playing matador on a long touchdown run in the fourth quarter. @SouhanStrib writes: https://t.co/rFGsL0GxSC pic.twitter.com/HS7M9IQb9A

Cut Chris Jones. What a pathetic attempt at tackling.

The Vikings should cut #26 Chris Jones tonight.
His lack of effort cost his team 8 points. #Vikings #Skol
