J.J. McCarthy set to undergo meniscus surgery
After being held from practice Monday, the Vikings are saying quarterback J.J McCarthy has a torn meniscus in the right knee and will undergo a procedure.
McCarthy was slated for increased turns this week with the first-team offense.
McCarthy, the 10th overall pick in the draft out of Michigan, had 188 yards, two touchdowns and one interception on 11-for-17 passing in his preseason debut against Las Vegas.
In a post to ‘X,’ McCarthy said he’ll be “back in no time.”
No immediate details about recovery time or the team’s next steps have been released.
