The Vikings have not told J.J. McCarthy that he is their starting quarterback, he said this week in an interview with the "Up & Adams Show."

During an interview with Kay Adams on Tuesday, Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy offered a brief insight into where the team stands on deciding their starter for 2025 and provided an update on his recovery from knee surgery.
