In the rushing department, Ty Chandler led the team with 14 carries for 30 yards, though he averaged just 2.1 yards per carry. Aaron Jones followed with seven carries for 29 yards, averaging 4.1 yards per rush. Darnold himself ran the ball five times for 11 yards, while C.J. Ham and Myles Gaskin added minor contributions on the ground. Ham scored a goal-line touchdown.
Jones is scheduled to undergo an MRI on his right hip Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He missed time in this game as a result. Do not be optimistic that Jones will just make his way back into the starting lineup come Week 7 (Vikings are on a Week 6 bye).
Chandler would inherit RB1 duties in Jones' absence. He played a 63% snap share, despite Jones starting the game (22% snap share). Be ahead of the curve on waivers scooping him up.
