Who Is The Next Quarterback To Receive Rich Extension? Here Are 8 Candidates

Unremarkable in preseason loss McKee completed 12 of 22 passes for 55 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in the Eagles' 30-13 preseason loss to the Bengals on Friday.

Impact McKee drew the start and played the entire first half, but as his final line indicates, he had significant trouble moving the ball downfield. The 2023 sixth-round pick had put together markedly better performance in preseason Week 2 against the Patriots, when he'd completed 72.7 percent of his 22 pass attempts for 173 yards and two touchdowns without an interception. McKee's sluggish showing Friday paired with Andy Dalton's solid second-half numbers (12-for-19, 104 yards, one TD) may be enough to give the latter the inside track to the No. 2 job to open the season.

Working behind Dalton as QB3 McKee has been working as the clear third quarterback behind Jalen Hurts and Andy Dalton during spring practices, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Impact McKee was excellent in his lone preseason appearance last summer, completing 20 of 25 passes for 252 yards and two touchdowns, while adding a third touchdown as a rusher. He looked like a potential long-term QB2 and possibly someone the Eagles could dangle in trade talks to a team looking to give McKee a shot to start. However, McKee disappointed in a Week 18 spot start against the Commanders last season, going 21 of 40 passing for 241 yards, one touchdown and one interception while absorbing three sacks in a 24-17 loss. The Eagles then traded for the veteran Dalton in March, and it looks like McKee might be bumped down the depth chart barring a trade.
