Fantasy Football Player Notes

J.J. McCarthy threw 3 touchdowns for the first time in his NFL career against the Commanders, completing 16 of 23 passes for 163 yards.
Two TDs to Josh Oliver (helping no one) and one TD to T.J. Hockenson. Oliver out-snapped Hockenson.
McCarthy averaged 2.56 seconds to throw, his quickest in any game this season by more than a quarter of a second. He completed 10 of his 11 quick throws for 85 yards and 2 touchdowns (Next Gen Stats).
An efficient day for the second-year QB versus a terrible defense, where he wasn't asked to do too much.
The hope is he can build confidence after this game...and build on it against a bad Cowboys secondary in Week 15.
