2025 Fantasy Outlook
McKee, a sixth-round pick in the 2023 Draft, spent most of his first two professional seasons as the Eagles' third-string quarterback, but he finally saw the field late last year, closing out Week 17 with both Jalen Hurts and Kenny Pickett injured and starting a meaningless regular-season finale with the No. 2 seed already locked in. He performed well, going a combined 30-for-45 for 323 yards with four touchdowns and zero interceptions. With Pickett now in Cleveland, McKee is expected to back up Hurts in 2025. Read Past Outlooks

September 3, 2025
McKee (thumb) did not practice Wednesday and is ruled out for Thursday's regular-season opener against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
McKee won't be available at home versus Dallas in Week 1, leaving Sam Howell in position to serve as the top backup to quarterback Jalen Hurts. The 2023 sixth-round pick is working his way back from a thumb fracture on his right throwing hand suffered Aug. 24. His next chance to suit up will come Week 2 on the road at Kansas City on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Looking iffy for Week 1
QBPhiladelphia Eagles
August 31, 2025
McKee still isn't practicing Sunday due to a fractured thumb, per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia, four days prior to Philadelphia's Week 1 game against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
McKee has been sidelined for around two weeks, with his status looking increasingly uncertain for the regular-season opener. If McKee can't play, Sam Howell would operate as the top backup to Jalen Hurts. Howell was acquired in a trade August 24, suggesting the Eagles have been bracing themselves for the possibility of McKee missing regular-season action.
