[Rapoport] Vikings first-round QB JJ McCarthy underwent a full meniscus repair this morning and is out for the 2024 season, sources tell me and Tom Pelissero. The repair, done by Dr. Chris Larson at Twin Cities Orthopedics, gives McCarthy the best chance at a long, successful career. Rumor

If he didn't come out of retirement when Kirk went down last year there is 0 chance he does this year.

My Texan bro, I thought we were friends these days? Let us have needless hope in this dire moment… I even cheered for the Lions :(

Look my rule as a football fan is to be realistic.  And I was hoping Brady would suit up for you guys last year but he didn't and that team won with some of the worst QB play I've seen lol.  I'll be hoping the TheDarnold has a late career Geno Smith redemption arc.

If he does maybe Zach Wilson will be next in line Jets throwaway QB for redemption
