With J.J. McCarthy returning to practice this week for the first time since suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 2, there was naturally plenty of speculation over the last few days that the second-year signal-caller could be under center this Sunday when the Minnesota Vikings host the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
Minnesota head coach Kevin O'Connell certainly didn't help much in stopping said speculation, as he failed to offer much insight as to who might be taking the snaps on Sunday as the week progressed.
Finally, O'Connell acquiesced on Friday, officially announcing that Carson Wentz will be the Vikings' QB1 for the fourth straight game.
