From the article

McKee pretty clearly outplayed Dalton during the spring, at least during the media-attended practices, but it's interesting that the team felt that he should have to earn the QB2 spot, which in my opinion, he already has the last three-plus years.

McKee outplayed Dalton in spring; already earned QB2 spot over three seasons

McKee has quietly prepared as a backup quarterback for three full seasons and mostly looked the part of a player who could earn a starting job when given opportunities. He pretty clearly outplayed 38-year-old Andy Dalton during spring practices, yet the Eagles felt he should have to earn the QB2 spot despite his continued progression as a pro quarterback over the last three-plus years.
