ESPN Fantasy Projection: The 10th overall pick of the 2024 NFL draft, McCarthy suffered a meniscus injury during the preseason and will miss his rookie campaign. McCarthy was 27-1 as a starter at Michigan and eventually will get to work with with Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson. He won't be mistaken for a running QB, but McCarthy has the ability to scramble and use his legs effectively to extend plays and keep drives alive. Keep McCarthy stashed in dynasty as he'll be a popular 2025 breakout candidate.
