According to Sports Illustrated's Conor Orr, the Minnesota Vikings are planning to replace quarterback J.J. McCarthy with a future Hall of Famer. This potential move would have significant negative implications for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who may have been counting on McCarthy's development or availability in future scenarios.
The prediction suggests a major shift in Minnesota's quarterback strategy, potentially accelerating McCarthy's exit or limiting his opportunities. For the Steelers, this development could impact their long-term planning at the quarterback position.
