So I think this situation with J.J.
McCarthy is, my only question mark, is J.J.
McCarthy on the roster week one?
If I was a betting man, I would say no.
Now, we have seen these situations.
Anthony Richardson's a good example last year.
Maybe because we drafted him.
We just keep him around.
But we saw last year when there was like a soft benching.
And Carson Wentz played those games.
With like a broken spleen, a broken rib, a broken leg.
It was like, why are they rolling Carson Wentz out here when J.J.
McCarthy is supposedly nursing a hamstring even though he's dressed?
It was very bizarre.
And when I look at this situation, Kyler Murray's going to be the starter week one.
Unless there's an injury, which is obviously you could be a caveat for any time you talk about football.
But there aren't that many quarterback competitions anymore.
I think they used to happen a lot.
even just 10, 15, 20 years ago.
But I think now with social media, with the pressure on these teams, you have a really, really good idea.
