Kevin O'Connell has a press conference at 12:30pm today, and if he doesn't waffle on things, it could be one of the more intriguing Vikings pressers in recent memory, given the QB situation and injury statuses all around.

I'm guessing he keeps us and Eagles wondering about QB1???

I have no idea how close JJM is or not.

They weren't calling it a high ankle sprain right away either if I am recalling this accurately.

I expect lots of coach speak to keep the eagles off-guard.

But pretty sure they called it a high ankle sprain right away.

Yeah, lots of Coachspeak. Little definites. Will know more about JJ as 'the week goes on'.

JJ McCarthy, Donovan Jackson, Brian O’Neill and Michael Jurgens will all practice in some capacity for the #Vikings this week, per KOC.

I think getting Jackson, Jurgens, and ONeill back could be key,  if they can get those guys on the field with CD and Fries,  get a run game established early..., that could really open up the offense.

I heard on KFAN speculation that JJM is probably 5% to play vs Eagles and not much higher for Chargers on a TNF game to follow...Reason being so little practice time due to the injury, like very little practice time.

Keep in mind, speculation only. But KOC wont risk him out there if he aint ready is my own speculation.

There's still 12 games to go, plenty of time to get a bead on the kid w/out rushing him in this week (or 4 days later.)

"I think there's the decision that is the public one," O'Connell said, "and I think there's the decision with what we're going to do for the game. And those two things can be on different timelines, although I know that's not the most comforting thing to share with you guys.
