McCarthy: Giants Trade Shock, Opportunity

J.J. McCarthy, the 2024 first-round pick, expressed surprise at being traded to the Giants from the Vikings but views the move as a chance to revive his NFL career. "When I got the call here, it was a shock. I didn't anticipate it, but at the end of the day, it's an opportunity," McCarthy said.

The Giants are working out a plan to move forward without Jaxson Dart for the rest of the season, giving McCarthy a potential role. While it's unclear if he'll be Jameis Winston's backup this Sunday against the Cardinals, McCarthy's time in Minnesota had soured, making this a fresh start. sportnewz.click
