On Monday, Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh evaluated McCarthy’s play through the first two weeks of the season.
“So explosive in the passing game. J.J. is phenomenal,” Harbaugh said. “So on fire. So on point. The throws that he is making from the pocket. Doing severe damage when he leaves the pocket. Keeps his eyes downfield. Getting big chunk plays and yardage. The receivers, the explosive plays, plus-15’s, are just huge.”
