Kyler Murray Says He's Mentoring JJ McCarthy - JJ Strongly Disagrees

Kyler Murray & JJ McCarthy Aren't Getting Along | Inside the Vikings QB Room

JJ McCarthy and Kyler Murray are splitting the Vikings quarterback room — and you can hear it in how differently they describe it. Covino & Rich break down Kyler's "I'm the veteran mentoring him" take, JJ's "two guys on opposite sides of the classroom" answer, and whether this is a real beef or just two competitors fighting for a job.

Is it still JJ's team? Is Kyler Murray a failed experiment getting a second life, or the veteran Minnesota needs? Covino thinks it's equal footing — Rich isn't so sure.

Covino & Rich, weekdays 5–7 PM ET / 2–4 PM PT on Fox Sports Radio + iHeartRadio. Watch full shows and chat live on YouTube @CovinoAndRichFSR.
