The Minnesota Vikings will host a quarterback competition at training camp in three weeks, and for the most part, fans are excited. But don’t tell that to CBS Sports‘ Carter Bahns, who claimed last week that the Vikings’ locker room could get “ugly” as a result.
To date, Minnesota has shown no signs of quarterback strife, but it’s on the way, per Bahns.
Bahns: Things Could Get Ugly in MIN
Sizing up possible “fireworks” around the league in the spirit of Independence Day, Bahns landed on the Vikings as one nominee. He explained, “Work in progress: Quarterback competition could get ugly. Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy offered two different accounts of the Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback competition when asked this spring about their working relationship.”
“Murray, who arrived on a minimum contract as the presumptive favorite to win the job, said that he embraced a mentor role and that McCarthy had been ‘overly acceptive’ of that leadership. The incumbent starter, however, made it sound as though they are not on such friendly terms.”
