Latest News about Tanner McKee
Tanner McKee, the Philadelphia Eagles backup quarterback, has drawn significant trade interest from multiple NFL teams, including the New York Jets, during the 2026 offseason. Despite these offers, the Eagles have shown little willingness to part with him unless they receive an overwhelmingly attractive offer, according to sources familiar with the situation.
Tanner McKee suffered a fractured thumb during training camp, an injury described as relatively minor since the break is located only at the tip of the thumb rather than affecting the joint or base. The Eagles are not planning to place him on injured reserve, which would have sidelined him for a minimum of four games, indicating he may return sooner than a standard IR placement would allow.
