Tanner McKee is in his second game as a starter for the Eagles against the Cowboys; with Devontae Smith and Dontavian Wicks unavailable, McKee will need to rely on slot receivers like Makai Lemon in a game where the Eagles are expected to throw due to their struggling defense.NegativeProjectionOct 20, 2026
Listed as a couple other name to try to get at quarterback if top three targets (Baker Mayfield, Aaron Rodgers, Michael Penix) are unavailable. Matthew Berry notes he picked up McKee because of Matthew Berry's advice when Joe Burrow was on bye.PositiveRoleOct 19, 2026
McKee demonstrated command of the Eagles offense in his debut, showing comfort and accuracy in a pro-style system. Unlike Jalen Hurts, McKee runs the under-center play-action scheme he's used since Stanford, which should make the Eagles offense more pass-heavy and drop-back oriented rather than relying on RPOs. Matthew Berry notes McKee is an accurate passer and trusts receivers like DeVonta Smith in one-on-one situations, evidenced by a perfect touchdown placement on a go route.NegativeRoleOct 19, 2026
Tanner McKee took over as Eagles starter with Jalen Hurts out for the season. In his first start, he struggled through the first three quarters but improved in the fourth quarter and got into a rhythm. Matthew Berry believes McKee doesn't run much but will be competent enough to get the ball to key receivers; he expects McKee to run the offense reasonably well and may make the Eagles offense more pass-heavy.PositiveProjectionOct 16, 2026
Matthew Berry ranks Tanner McKee as QB25 for Week 6 against Panthers. Berry believes McKee is better than people think; missing some offensive starters (Offense Flynn banged up), limited time in Sean Mannion system, but Panthers have two weeks to prepare. Berry owns McKee in dynasty league and would pick him up anywhere; scenario exists where McKee is Eagles starting QB for rest of season within range of outcomes.PositiveRoleOct 15, 2026
Tanner McKee becomes the Eagles' starting quarterback with Jalen Hurts out. Mo Hassan praises McKee as a capable starter, noting he was a top five-star prospect coming out of high school and is built like a first-round pick. Hassan highlights that the Eagles' scouting department is top-tier and McKee has played exceptionally well in limited action. However, Berry cautions that McKee is new to Sean Mannion's system and likely has limited reps, though the system is similar to what McKee ran at Stanford with under-center, outside zone, and play-action concepts.
