McCarthy demoted to third-string after immaturity concerns and off-script behavior.

J.J. McCarthy has been demoted to third-string QB for the Vikings this season after being a 2024 first-round pick. The source indicates McCarthy's immaturity was a factor in his demotion, noting he 'veered wildly off script' during film sessions and celebrated a touchdown 5 yards before crossing the line of scrimmage against Dallas, which 'did not sit well internally' with coach Kevin O'Connell.
