Vikings quarterback, J.J. McCarthy, made a surprise appearance at the Yankees' home opener against the Marlins in support of Devils star Jack Hughes and goaltender Aerin Frankel. McCarthy is set to be the 10th overall pick in 2024 and came off a disappointing first season as Minnesota's starter after recovering from a torn meniscus. Despite this, McCarthy has been praised for his performance and contributions to the team's quarterback room.
