The Philadelphia Eagles added to their quarterback room this week by acquiring Andy Dalton in a trade with the Carolina Panthers.
With Dalton expected to serve as the Eagles' backup signal-caller behind Jalen Hurts, speculation has risen on whether the team could now trade Tanner McKee. McKee has appeared in six games over the last two seasons, including two starts, for Philadelphia, and has looked solid. The Stanford product is a young quarterback with potential that could have interest from teams on the trade market.
The Los Angeles Rams , Las Vegas Raiders , and Detroit Lions could be among the franchises that keep an eye on McKee's situation with the Eagles. Stetson Bennett is currently slated to be the Rams' No. 2 quarterback behind Matthew Stafford, and there's no denying McKee would be an upgrade for Sean McVay's squad.
The Raiders' new coaching staff, led by Klint Kubiak, could look to replace Aidan O'Connell at the backup spot and trade for McKee to provide quality depth behind presumed No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza. Detroit doesn't have a pressing need for a backup with Teddy Bridgewater on the roster , but if the Lions want to add some youth to the quarterback room, acquiring McKee would be a logical way to do it.
