Probably induced. Let's get that kid out, throw a jersey on 'em and get ready for the Falcons.

No baby news yet?? Early rumor is they are leaning toward S.B. McCarthy for the baby name.

J.J. McCarthy is back at #Vikings practice today (TBA on baby details). Jeff Okudah is practicing in a no-contact jersey as he goes through the concussion protocol. Still no Andrew Van Ginkel.

Baller QB name: VikingzFanPage @vikingzfanpage · 1m JJ McCarthy is naming his son Rome, per Kevin O’Connell. Rome McCarthy  :D

Well, the young knuckleheads could have planned this a bit better timeframe-wise ;) , but they induced during the week of a home game and have a healthy baby boy so all's good. But this is how you do it: [b]Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy welcomes first child, then has ‘great’ practice[/b] Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell, who has four kids, praised McCarthy’s return in a “kind of fast Friday practice” following the birth of his son, Rome, on Thursday.
