The Vikings signed McCain on Monday.
McCain, who spent his 2023 campaign with the Giants, has found a new home in Minnesota. The nine-year veteran safety played just 19 defensive snaps across 10 appearances in 2023, so he'll likely be competing for a special-teams role ahead of the Vikings' 2024 season.

Giants' Bobby McCain: Out Sunday
Rotowire
McCain (illness) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
McCain was a late addition to the Giants' injury report, and he didn't travel with the team to D.C., so it's no surprise that he won't suit up Sunday. The veteran safety has appeared in seven games for New York this season, playing almost strictly on special teams and recording one total tackle.

Rotowire
McCain (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Patriots, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.
McCain was able to play through this injury last week against the Chiefs. He logged consecutive limited practices to close out the week, indicating he's on the right track for this Sunday's divisional bout. If he's held out, rookie Brandon Jones likely would be the next man up at free safety.

Dolphins' Bobby McCain: Making plays at camp
Rotowire
McCain (shoulder) stood out as a playmaker during Wednesday's practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
McCain moved all around the field Wednesday, logging two big plays in the form of an interception and a spectacular pass breakup. The starting free safety's strong performance in practice is an indication that he's fully put November's shoulder surgery behind him. Though third-round pick Brandon Jones could earn reps as a rookie, McCain is the clear favorite to begin 2020 as the starter.

Rotowire
McCain (shoulder) won't carry an injury tag into Monday's game against the Steelers.
McCain was limited in practice all week, but he'll be good to go for the prime-time game. The fourth-year pro has been an every-down player this year, registering 17 tackles over five games. He'll be tasked with slowing down quarterback Mason Rudolph and running back James Conner.

Rotowire
McCain (hamstring/shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
McCain closed out the week with a pair of limited practices, but the Dolphins ultimately decided he needed more time off to overcome the two injuries. His absence will leave the secondary without a key starter, though the Dolphins will benefit from getting fellow safety Reshad Jones (ankle) back from a two-week absence.

Dolphins' Bobby McCain: Transitions to safety
Rotowire
McCain is taking reps at the safety position during training camp, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
McCain began the switch from cornerback to safety toward the end of the 2018 campaign, and it appears that his new role will stick. The 2015 fifth-round pick logged 61 tackles (50 solo), two sacks, five passes defended and one interception last season. If McCain indeed plays the full 2019 season as a safety, he'll see increased tackle opportunities.
