McCarthy, the No. 10 overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, made his preseason debut Saturday in a 24-23 win against the Las Vegas Raiders in which he completed 11 of 17 passes for 188 yards, two touchdowns, an interception and a 116.8 rating.
On Saturday, Sam Darnold got the start, but McCarthy, 21, was due to get some run with the first-teamers on Monday and in joint practices against the Cleveland Browns this week. How McCarthy’s tests come back will determine whether he practices at Cleveland.
