It's been about a month since we last saw Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy suit up for a game, but the hope is that he will be back in the starting lineup when the team returns from its bye for a Week 7 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles next Sunday.
While McCarthy was originally expected to miss four weeks, at the most, because of the ankle injury he suffered back in Week 2, that doesn't seem to be anything close to a guarantee currently.
On Sunday, NFL Media's Tom Pelissero shared an update on Minnesota's quarterback situation, and it really only created more questions about everything that's going on.
