Overlooked stat could determine if J.J. McCarthy stuns the NFL in 2025

The Minnesota Vikings' offseason was centered around quarterback J.J. McCarthy and setting him up to succeed in his first year as the starter. The interior of the offensive line has been fortified with one of the top offensive tackle tandems in the league, and the depth of skill position talent around McCarthy will make his job immeasurably easier.

Justin Jefferson is now entering his sixth season, and he's not going anywhere in the conversation about the best wide receiver in the NFL. Tight end T.J. Hockenson has proven to be an impactful addition since being acquired from the Detroit Lions at the 2022 trade deadline.
