Will QB Tanner McKee draw trade interest, again?
Eagles backup QB Tanner McKee drew trade interest around the draft last year and that will likely be the case again later this month.
The 6-foot-6 McKee was a sixth-round pick by Philadelphia in 2023 and has generally impressed in spot duty for the Eagles, throwing five touchdowns to one interception.
The front office has some incentive to explore a trade given that McKee is entering the last year of his rookie deal, and they added insurance by acquiring Andy Dalton in March.
But general manager Howie Roseman doesn't sound like he's in a hurry to move him.
"From our perspective, having a guy like Tanner is incredible security for us," he said at the league meetings in Arizona. "The way I think about these three quarterbacks, when I go to bed at night and I know we have three quarterbacks who can play, I sleep better. That's just how I roll."
