The veteran quarterback will bring extra depth to their quarterback room, which already includes Kyler Murray, JJ McCarthy, and Max Brosmer. This move comes after Winx's season ending shoulder surgery last fall. Earlier this year, Winx signed with the Vikings as a backup, but stepped in for five starts when McCarthy got hurt. He played through a serious left shoulder injury, described as a dislocated join with a torn labrum and fracture socket. He had successful surgery on November 11th under head coach Kevin O'Connell's watch. Fans and analysts see this as smart insurance, especially since Murray and McCarthy both have long injury histories. Minnesota is aiming to bounce back as a playoff team, and experienced arms like Winx provides solid back-up options if starters go down. This built his name as a starter with the Philadelphia Eagles, leading them through most of their 2017 Super Bowl winning season before, and injury sidelineed him.
