NFL: The Insiders on J.J. McCarthy

PodcastThe Insiders Podcast: Unsigned Rookies, Jeremiyah Loves Speaks, and Baker Mayfi...June 23, 2026

From the episode

last year, JJ McCarthy really did not progress the way they had hoped. Certainly did not give them anywhere near what they hoped in terms of performance. This is a chance for both of these quarterbacks to resurrect their careers.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

JJ McCarthy hopes to save career after disappointing 2025 season.

Vikings QB did not progress as hoped in 2025 and did not deliver expected performance; now in QB competition with Kyler Murray; this is a chance to save his career after disappointing second season.
