It's no secret that J.J. McCarthy has had his fair share of struggles since the Minnesota Vikings took him with the 10th overall pick in the 2024 draft.

The 22-year-old also missed five games this season after suffering a high-ankle sprain in a Week 2 loss to fellow 2024 first-rounder Michael Penix Jr.
