‘You’ve got to be kidding me’: J.J. McCarthy’s injury still raises one Giants question
Key Points:
- Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy played through a hip injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s 19-11 win over the Eagles, despite missing most of the third quarter for treatment.
- McCarthy expressed eagerness to return to the field, stating he wanted to play as soon as he was able to walk and throw, and reported his hip felt good after the game.
- Coach John Harbaugh praised McCarthy’s performance and determination, noting that McCarthy insisted on returning to the game despite the injury.
- McCarthy has led the Giants to two road wins as the replacement for Jaxson Dart, helping the team maintain momentum in their quest to secure the NFC East.
- The Giants face a quick turnaround with a Thursday night home game against the Commanders, and McCarthy’s health will be a key factor to monitor going forward.
