Josh Metellus, the versatile player for the Minnesota Vikings, heaped praise on J.J. McCarthy, highlighting the young quarterback's impressive arm strength. Metellus noted that McCarthy's zip on the ball is among the best he has encountered in the league.

In a unique comparison, Metellus referenced Sean Mannion, a former backup QB for the Vikings, indicating that McCarthy can throw the ball with precision and velocity that rivals some of the league's top arms. This endorsement could bode well for McCarthy's future as he continues to develop in the league.
