Daily Norseman on J.J. McCarthy

McCarthy accepts backup role; expresses commitment to Vikings QB room and organization.

In his first press conference since Murray was named the starter, McCarthy accepted the decision gracefully and expressed his desire to remain with the Vikings and do whatever he can to help the QB room, team, and organization. The source notes that the competition, while preordained, may have cushioned the blow for McCarthy in a way that was perceived positively by both McCarthy and the team.
