Eagles' Tanner McKee: Emergency QB versus Falcons
McKee is not active for Monday's matchup with the Falcons due to a coach's decision, but he will be available as the team's emergency third quarterback if needed.
Kenny Pickett is slated to back up Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia's home opener, but McKee will be available if both happen to get hurt. The 2023 sixth-round pick was unable to earn the backup role during training camp. He did not see the field in the Eagles' season-opening victory over the Packers.

Eagles' Tanner McKee: Fails to make case for No. 2 job
McKee completed 13 of 21 passes for 115 yards and an interception in Saturday's 26-3 preseason loss to the Vikings.
The 2023 sixth-round pick took over from Kenny Pickett to begin the season half, but McKee failed to lead the Eagles to points on any of his five drives and turned the ball over twice, getting sacked and fumbling the ball on his first snap and then chucking a red-zone interception on his last one. This was the Stanford product's last chance to make his case for the No. 2 quarterback job behind Jalen Hurts, but McKee wouldn't seem to have done enough to overtake Pickett on the depth chart.

Eagles' Tanner McKee: Seeing more second-team reps
Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia relays that McKee has gotten more reps with the second-team offense as the Eagles' training camp has progressed.
McKee, whom the Eagles selected in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, spent all of his rookie year as the emergency quarterback. While Philadelphia acquired Kenny Pickett from Pittsburgh in March to serve as Jalen Hurts' backup, Moore has shown enough improvement during training camp to see more reps with the second-team offense during practice. The Eagles play the Ravens in the first week of preseason action Friday, which will give McKee a chance to make his case for the backup job behind Hurts.
