A day after placing one veteran quarterback on waivers, the Minnesota Vikings have claimed another veteran quarterback off waivers.

The Vikings are replacing Donovan McNabb with Sage Rosenfels, Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com reports.

Rosenfels has been on the Dolphins’ Non-Football Injury list with an infection, but he was waived off that list on Thursday. There was talk that he’d end up with the quarterback-needy Texans, but that turned out not to be the case.

This will be the second time Rosenfels has been a member of the Vikings; he was with the team in 2009 until he became expendable when Brett Favre arrived in camp. (You knew we had to find a way to work Favre into today’s stories of veteran quarterbacks trading places.)

So now Rosenfels will spend a few weeks doing what McNabb didn’t want to do: backing up Christian Ponder and Joe Webb.

He'll never play a snap for the Vikes, just filling a roster spot.
I'd still rather have him than McNabb..

He needs to take the advice of the last three coaches, work on his mechanics.
He's always been able to rely on his feet when in trouble, now he's older and needs to rely on his throwing abilties.
He's too bullheaded to realize that he has to be smarter..Or he's just not that smart???

I don't get why Brett Farve is not beating down the doors at the Texans office. They are a playoff team that needs a QB. Farve would just have to come in and play a few games and possibly be in the Super Bowl. They have a great running game with Foster and Tate. All Farve would have to learn is how high Andre Johnson wants the ball in the endzone.

He's sitting there waiting for a few of the Texans to fly down and talk him into it..
