SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - Nine is headed East to join the Giants.
Minnesota Vikings quarter back JJ McCarthy has been traded to New York for a 5th round pick, reported by The Ringer this morning.
The Michigan graduate had a record of 6-4 in games played last season.
He hasn’t seen a snap this year with Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz holding the positions.
To Vikings GM Nolan Teasley, this is about making sure the team evolves each week.
Nolan Teasley, Vikings general manager said, “I still believe he has ability and that he has an opportunity to go to New York and make a difference. It’s just we got to the point where the return made sense for us now to get an asset that in all honesty is going to help us in the future or it could help us this season.”
