(KNOX) – Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy will miss the entire season after undergoing surgery on his right knee.
McCarthy had an operation Wednesday to repair a torn meniscus suffered at some point during his preseason debut last weekend against Las Vegas. The 21-year-old McCarthy told the team his knee was sore after the game and the meniscus tear was diagnosed by imaging tests.
The Vikings initially thought McCarthy would only miss a month.
The former Michigan Wolverine had a solid training camp and had been expected to back up starter Sam Darnold.
Nick Mullens will be Minnesota’s No. 2 quarterback.
