Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy appeared in significant pain while attempting to throw on the sidelines following a shoulder injury, according to reports from Sunday's game.
The second-year signal-caller was seen grimacing and struggling with throwing motions during the team's Week 10 matchup, raising immediate concerns about the severity of the injury.
McCarthy, the 10th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, has been developing as the franchise quarterback for Minnesota. The Vikings have not yet released an official update on his status or a timeline for potential return.
