Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy (concussion) has a chance to play Week 14

ESPN

Dec 01, 2025 · 1:43 PM EST

The Minnesota Vikings could go from one struggling young quarterback to another this week.

J.J. McCarthy could be cleared from the concussion protocol as soon as Monday, coach Kevin O'Connell said Sunday, and he would be in line to start the Vikings' Week 14 game against the Washington Commanders.

Related players: Max Brosmer

Fantasy Impact:

O'Connell said McCarthy is still in protocol, but said the team will see how he does on Tuesday. The hype around Brosmer was real heading into last Week 13, but the rookie threw four INTs as the Vikings were shutout 26-0 vs. Seattle. It was the first time the Vikings have been shut out since Week 17 of the 2007 season. Their 305-game streak since then, including the regular season and playoffs, was the third-longest active streak in the NFL, the story said.

Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell announced J.J. McCarthy didn't clear concussion protocol and undrafted rookie QB Max Brosmer will start on Sunday at Seattle.

Fantasy Impact:

The Seahawks defense could end up feasting in this matchup, making Brosmer an easy fade for Week 13.

Vikings to start Carson Wentz at QB

Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell says the team put J.J. McCarthy (ankle) through an on-field workout this morning, and while the team is encouraged, "he's just not there" on a short week.

Carson Wentz starts again, Max Brosmer backs him up and McCarthy will be the emergency No. 3.

Fantasy Impact:

Kevin O'Connell says if this were a Sunday game, McCarthy might have a chance to go. That would seem to put him on track to be available to start Week 9 against the Lions, Pelissero went on to say.

Carson Wentz will get Week 7 start, J.J. McCarthy to be emergency No. 3 QB

Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell says Carson Wentz will start Sunday vs. the Eagles.

Max Brosmer will back him up and J.J. McCarthy, who is listed as questionable, will serve as the emergency No. 3 QB as he continues to work his way back from a high ankle sprain.

Fantasy Impact:

Fire up the narrative game talk. Wentz is probably a little thin as a QB streaming option, but he's got a nice floor as a SuperFlex QB2.
