GIANTS GET FLEECED; VIKINGS LAUGH ALL THE WAY TO THE DRAFT
The Turnover
Reporting the Stories that Didn’t Really Happen.
NEW YORK — After losing Jaxson Dart for the season, New York immediately began searching for someone capable of keeping its passing game alive.
Apparently, things got desperate.
How desperate do the Giants have to be to decide J.J. McCarthy is the answer?
I mean, Philip Rivers wasn’t available for another comeback tour?
Look, there’s actually some promise here. A young core. Harbaugh at the helm. Maybe the beginning of something resembling competence.
And then they traded for J.J.
Mr. More Interceptions Than Touchdowns.
Mr. 163 Passing Yards Per Game.
Mr. Somehow Made Justin Jefferson Look Pedestrian.
This is a quarterback who helped Minnesota produce the NFL’s 30th-ranked passing attack, and New York apparently looked at that résumé and said:
“Get his agent on the phone.”
Come on. Even the Browns would think twice about J.J. as their answer at quarterback.
And they are, you know…
The Browns.
The Giants sent Minnesota a 2027 fifth-round pick for the former first-rounder, completing the rare NFL transaction where both fanbases immediately asked:
“Wait… WE wanted this?”
J.J. now joins Jameis in New York, giving the Giants two quarterbacks and several exciting new ways to punt.
The search is over.
The passing game may be too.
