Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy will miss the 2024 season after undergoing surgery to repair his torn meniscus on Wednesday, head coach Kevin O'Connell announced.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported that it was determined Wednesday morning that a full repair was necessary, but the Vikings "strongly believe" McCarthy will "come back stronger than ever."
