Vikings Urged to Move On From J.J. McCarthy Amid QB Uncertainty
TL;DR Summary
Fox Sports radio host Jason Smith blasted Minnesota’s handling of quarterback J.J. McCarthy, calling it the worst NFL QB decision and urging the Vikings to move on. Vikings GM Nolan Teasley pushes back, saying McCarthy is still on the team’s Week 1 roster to develop, even amid rumors he could fall to third-string behind Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz. McCarthy started 10 games last season with 12 interceptions and 11 TDs, and while Minnesota added QB talent this offseason, he remains under his rookie contract with a possible fifth-year option, making a trade possible but the team reportedly intends to keep him to continue his development.
