McCarthy's 252-yard debut with Giants shows early promise after Minnesota struggles.

McCarthy has shown early promise with the Giants after being acquired for a fifth-round pick from Minnesota; he threw for 243 yards in less than a quarter replacing Winston against the Saints, then posted a career-best 252 yards against Houston. At 23 years old with only 10 starts under his belt from last season, McCarthy appears to have found a better fit in Matt Nagy's offense and with Malik Nabers as his primary target, positioning him for continued growth after his struggles in Minnesota where he fell to third on the depth chart.
