Vikings "Exploring All Possibilities" to Improve Their QB Room
The Minnesota Vikings are "exploring all possibilities" as they look to improve their quarterback play in 2026, executive vice president of football operations Rob Brzezinski said on Tuesday at the NFL scouting combine. The Vikings are still hoping that former first-rounder J.J. McCarthy can be their franchise QB, but his injury history and poor performance last year have led the team to consider options that will, at the very least, add competition going into 2026. ESPN's Kevin Seifert writes that neither Brzezinski nor head coach Kevin O'Connell committed to keeping McCarthy in the starter's role going into next season. Brzezinski termed the process "casting a wide net" and said, "I don't think we're ruling anything out." McCarthy had a strong training camp going into his rookie year, but then suffered a season-ending meniscus tear in his right knee. The bottom line is that McCarthy is going to need to stay healthy and perform better this summer to be named the Week 1 starter this fall in Minnesota.
