STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

McCarthy started only 10 of 34 possible games in two seasons due to injuries.

McCarthy has struggled to stay healthy as a pro: missed all of his rookie year (2024) with a torn meniscus requiring season-ending surgery; sidelined for seven games in 2025 with a high-ankle sprain, concussion, and hand injury; healthy enough to start only 10 of 34 possible contests over his first two seasons before the Vikings moved on.
