The source notes he wasn't helped by coaching staff or offensive injuries, but the Eagles were never fully committed to him—he began the season as the third quarterback behind Andy Dalton. The team signed Joe Milton from the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad to replace him.

Tanner McKee is being benched after filling in as the Eagles' starter since Week 6 when Jalen Hurts was sidelined by blood clots. McKee's tenure has been unsuccessful: the Eagles are 0-3 in his starts, extending an ongoing skid to six games. In Sunday night's 27-10 loss to the Washington Commanders, McKee threw for 212 yards and an interception on 23-of-32 passing. For the season, he has thrown for 638 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.

McKee has struggled significantly in three starts filling in for Hurts, with the Eagles ranking 32nd in yards per play (4.2), 31st in yards per attempt (5.6), and 29th in offensive points per game (15.0).

He couldn't beat out Andy Dalton for the QB2 job in the offseason, highlighting the massive drop-off from Hurts.

McKee lost out to Andy Dalton in the battle for the QB2 job for a reason; there is enough tape in three games to demonstrate McKee isn't good enough to be a starting quarterback in the league. Even with the offensive line decimated by injuries, McKee is slow in his progressions and has no mobility to get out of trouble. Against the Commanders, McKee finished 23-of-34 for 212 yards with 0 TD, 1 INT and a 72.2 passer rating, with a lost fumble in the second half for two giveaways; 46 passing yards were in garbage time in the final minute.

Ian Hartitz ranks Tanner McKee QB26 against the Giants. McKee is throwing for 210+ yards in his first three games, which is impressive given Eagles injuries, but he's averaging the same fantasy points as Justin Herbert this year (10 points per game). Given the Eagles' lackluster overall performance and injury situation, expectations should remain low.

QB Tanner McKee had mostly avoided turnovers prior to the second half of Sunday's loss at Washington, but the Eagles offense has shown little productivity this year, averaging just 17.1 points (30th) and 265.3 total yards (32nd) despite facing a soft schedule.
