Vikings adjust QB competition as trade talks on J.J. McCarthy emerge

The Minnesota Vikings are changing how they distribute reps in their quarterback competition, focusing on Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy. Head coach Kevin O’Connell has been giving both quarterbacks opportunities, but a report suggests the team may soon shift focus. If Murray secures the starting position, speculation about McCarthy being traded could increase as his contract status diminishes with time. Meanwhile, Carson Wentz remains a backup option, adding further complexity to the Vikings' quarterback situation.
