For the NFL, it's March 17th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. The Minnesota Vikings just shook up their quarterback situation by signing veteran Kyler Murray. Now, 30-year player JJ McCarthy faces real competition for the starting spot after a rough season last year. Experts think McCarthy could lose out and end up getting traded away from Minnesota. That would clear the path for Murray while giving the Vikings some roster flexibility. Leecher report analysts Mo Moton voted a trade idea sending McCarthy to the Arizona Cardinals. It makes sense since Arizona missed out on big free agent quarterbacks. Over there, McCarthy could back up Jacobi Preset and Gardner Menshu while learning the ropes. The Cardinals lack a long-term option at the position, so he fits as a project guy. Vikings likely won't move until training can't play out. If McCarthy struggles, this deal could help both teams snag a backup and build for the future. This story is made possible by our sponsor.
