J.J. McCarthy reported symptoms to the team and has been placed in the concussion protocol, Kevin O'Connell announced just now.
"Too early" to tell if he'll be available Sunday in Seattle. Max Brosmer will take first-team reps until McCarthy is cleared to return.

New on @athlonsports.bsky.social Sports: Last season, the Panthers benched Bryce Young for his own good -- so he could calm down and see the game differently. It worked.
It's time for the Vikings to see if a benching works for J.J. McCarthy. He's lost out there. athlonsports.com/other-sports...

It is genuinely hilarious that Tom Brady spearheaded every decision that has made the Raiders the most directionless and unwatchable franchise in the league, and he's just sat in Dallas calling the game of the most well-run team in the league
