John Harbaugh considers J.J. McCarthy for Giants' QB role amid struggles

Giants head coach John Harbaugh is exploring a change at quarterback, considering J.J. McCarthy as a potential starter. This follows inconsistent performances from current QB Jameis Winston, especially against the Rams and Titans. Harbaugh aims to stabilize the QB situation after injuries to Jaxson Dart and Brian Burns, leading to a trade for McCarthy. Sources indicate McCarthy could debut as early as Week 6 against the Saints or after the BYE in Week 9 against the Commanders, contingent on Winston's play. Harbaugh's history of mid-season QB changes adds context to the situation.
