Vikings have cautious optimism about Max Brosmer

Vikings quarterback Max Brosmer will make his starting debut against the Seattle Seahawks, stepping in due to J.J. McCarthy entering concussion protocol. Brosmer, undrafted and signed by the Vikings in April, has remained a consistent presence on the active roster. Previously, he served as a backup to Carson Wentz when McCarthy was sidelined with an ankle injury. The Vikings reportedly hold Brosmer in high regard, with some within the organization believing he has the potential for a long NFL career. Known for his quick decision-making and accuracy, Brosmer contrasts with McCarthy’s tendency to rely heavily on fast throws, which limits the team's offensive versatility. Brosmer's performance will be closely watched as the Vikings evaluate their quarterback options for the future.
