The Vikings are trusting J.J. McCarthy as their starter despite overtures from Aaron Rodgers. The 22-year-old believes he is ready to take on the job.

Van Ginkel entered the league after being selected by the Miami Dolphins with the 151st overall pick in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft. After spending four years in Florida, the former Wisconsin standout joined the Vikings and quickly became a key piece of the team’s defense.

McCarthy, the No. 10 pick in the 2024 NFL draft, was battling with Darnold to be the starter in Minnesota summer before a torn meniscus suffered in the preseason opener against the Las Vegas Raiders ended his rookie year prematurely.

One name to keep an eye on at the three-day event is University of Maine receiver Montigo Moss, the son of Vikings great Randy Moss. According to Believe Sports Group, Montigo was invited to Vikings rookie minicamp on April 29.
