Despite not being the most touted QB to enter the draft due to Michigan’s run-heavy offense, J.J. McCarthy’s talent and potential are undeniable. After being drafted by the Vikings, he expressed his eagerness to contribute, saying, “My mindset is just to take one day at a time and really focus on just getting to know everyone’s names, getting to know the playbook inside and out, and to focus on being the best version of myself every single day.” This eagerness and dedication bode well for his future with the Vikings.
As Adofo-Mensah said, “We’re over big here on quarterbacks and how differently they can impact the game… From a talent standpoint, he was as talented as anybody in the draft.” Vikings HC Kevin O’Connell also lauded the signal-caller’s ability to throw and extend plays. McCarthy ranked No. 94 in FBS and averaged 22.1 passes per game last season. Hopefully, he’ll be able to cement his name as the new face of the Vikings in the coming season.
