I can see a path where he is very well the 3rd QB this year. It gives him the absolute best road to working on what he needs to for this year. It isn't a bad thing either. This also allows Kyler to be put at ease and just do his thing.

I don’t know what it’s going to take for some people to understand that it’s almost a certainty that JJ McCarthy is not going to be on this team next off-season. This would just be the latest nail in his coffin. A top 10 QB selection heading into his third season and he has been demoted to QB3? I mean….c’mon now. You’d have to be very stubborn on purpose to not see that it’s over. He’s got no future on this team.

I can see him as QB2. Kudos to him for coming back after the injury

Not sure I am ready to fully make that the conclusion. I am just going to see how it plays out.

I feel there is a growing likelihood that the 2027 starting QB for this team is not on the current roster. It would take a significant Darnold type turnaround for any of them.

I assumed on the day they signed Wentz it was going to be KM 1, Carson 2, and JJ 3 unless they trade JJ, then it would Brosmer 3. I know fans love JJ but he has a long way to go.
