Here are more takeaways from Day 9 of training camp: It was a strong performance from McCarthy at every stage of practice. He carried himself with a ton of confidence whether he was completing passes in warmups, dialing it up in 7-on-7 drills, or commanding the offense in 11-on-11 drills.

McCarthy has impressed, Brian Flores' defense looks sharp and there are roster battles aplenty as the Vikings prepare to put pads on Monday.
