Purple Daily | a Minnesota Vikings podcast · Is Minnesota Vikings QB decision actually the best path for JJ McCarthy? · 13 Aug 2026 podcast

McCarthy was announced as QB2 by O'Connell in the press conference a couple days ago, and you can go on the Minnesota Vikings website right now because they released their first depth chart, and you can check who the official QB2 is. voice-verified

So as far as that now, does that preclude – the way that this could go is – I can understand this. voice-verified

I don't know. voice-verified

But the people that are like, oh, you showcase McCarthy in the preseason games, if he has taken a step forward developmentally and he looks really good in those preseason games – voice-verified

could it be a showcase to, to potentially trade them? voice-verified

Maybe, you know, that part of it, we'll, we'll have to see, but, but yeah, JJ McCarthy's the backup quarterback. voice-verified

Yeah, I think a couple weeks in, we can now toss out a couple names, obviously with a big asterisk and caveat that it's August 13th and we have not played a preseason game yet. voice-verified

But to this point, just the, you know, you know what I mean? voice-verified

They haven't had a joint practice. voice-verified

There's, voice-verified

know. voice-verified

We're not going to say voice-verified

Yeah, I think there's still been more non-padded practices than practices. voice-verified

I would have to do a tally on that. voice-verified

This is the moment in time that we're in, but I will toss them out with those asterisks and caveats. voice-verified

The number one one that I would toss out, and we've talked about this on the show a bit, and a modest proposal one as well, I think is Blake Brendel and the snapping in particular, which... voice-verified

continues to be problematic um there's you have botch snaps or aaron snaps uh in a lot of these different practices um and i think maybe yesterday as well but that's something that has to be cleaned up that that is the logical voice-verified

the leap that the vikings are making with brendel of well last year when he tossed him into the fire he hadn't really played center before in his lifetime but he he looked okay then right and maybe he can be the starter um i would have more insurance for that position um but like that's he'd be the number one disappointment for me so far because you know again and on in his defense voice-verified

This is, as I mentioned before, his first training camp where he's being a center. voice-verified

This is like the full-time kind of center thing. voice-verified
