Giants OC gets brutally honest on JJ McCarthy after Vikings trade

The New York Giants recently acquired Minnesota Vikings quarterback JJ McCarthy after a string of poor performances from Jameis Winston. Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy shared his thoughts on McCarthy after his arrival, praising his work ethic and stating that the team was impressed with his performance in the first 48 hours. Nagy emphasized that the focus remains on preparing Winston to be the starter this week, despite McCarthy's presence.

Winston had been thrust into action following an injury to Jaxson Dart, who is now expected to miss the rest of the season. Winston's struggles in the recent games have led to calls for the Giants to look elsewhere for a quarterback, but acquiring McCarthy has added an extra layer of intrigue to the team's preparations. The Giants are set to face the Arizona Cardinals in a home game this Sunday at 1:00 pm ET.
