J.J. McCarthy is back.
In his first game action since the 2024 preseason opener, the Vikings quarterback took 12 snaps against the Texans.
The drive ended with a field goal, giving the Vikings a 3-0 lead.
McCarthy completed four of seven passes for 30 yards, with four targets (three catches) going to receiver Jordan Addison.
The second-year signal-caller also ran for eight yards on fourth and four from Houston’s 43.
