QB1 SETTLED: THE WIN-NOW MOVE MINN. HAD TO MAKE
Professor Football's Take
Kyler Murray is a professional quarterback in every sense of the word. Knows what's expected of himself on and off the field, can command the respect of the locker room, and has proven he can get to the playoffs with the right pieces around him. Excited to see what he can do under Kevin O'Connell and Co and imagine him and Justin Jefferson will be explosive. McCarthy is still young and has a lot to learn. This is the move Minnesota had to make and making it before preseason game #1, it must have been obvious to everyone in the building.
