J.J. McCarthyQB
McCarthy will split first-team reps with Kyler Murray during Vikings training camp as the two compete for the starting role. Head coach Kevin O'Connell stated both quarterbacks will take first-team snaps and second-team reps with less-advanced casts to provide different evaluation layers. O'Connell expects similar numbers of first-team reps initially, with the gap widening over camp based on practice structure and defensive coordinator Brian Flores' schemes. The plan is to split reps within practice rather than alternate days.

Both Kyler & J.J. will take reps with the first team. They'll also take reps with the second group & I think that gives different layers to the evaluation as well.
