Vikings Want J.J. McCarthy To Be Their Starting QB

Thursday, March 27, 1:39 PM

Naming quarterback J.J. McCarthy (knee) as the Minnesota Vikings' starting quarterback is "the outcome we want" and "the outcome we're headed towards," general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah said on Wednesday. However, the GM also refused to rule out the possibility of revisiting talks with free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers later this offseason if he's still available. McCarthy and Brett Rypien are the only QBs currently on the Vikings roster after both Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones left in free agency. McCarthy, the 10th overall pick in 2024, missed all of his rookie season due to a torn meniscus in his right knee suffered in the preseason. However, he's been cleared for offseason activities and is working to regain weight after losing more than 20 pounds. McCarthy said he hasn't been told he's the starter, but barring something unexpected, he should be under center for the Vikes in Week 1 this fall.

Jordan Travis Suffers Setbacks, Expected To Remain On NFI List

Wednesday, November 27, 11:06 AM

New York Jets quarterback Jordan Travis (ankle) has experienced some setbacks and is not expected to be activated from the non-football injury list before the end of the 2024 NFL season, interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday. Travis suffered the injury while competing at Florida State University last season, and he was placed on the NFI list near the end of training camp. Ulbrich noted that he checks in with Travis daily, and even though his recovery isn't going as expected, the Jets' coach loves the young quarterback's work ethic and believes he can still be an impact player. Fantasy managers will likely have to wait until next year before getting a glimpse of Travis in a Jets uniform. In the meantime, New York's quarterback room will continue to feature veterans Aaron Rodgers and Tyrod Taylor.
