Eagles Promote Tanner McKee Backup QB, Trade Kenny Pickett to Browns

News summary

The Philadelphia Eagles have made key decisions and adjustments heading into the 2025 NFL season to maintain their championship-level performance. Tight end Dallas Goedert agreed to a pay cut to stay with the team and contribute to another Super Bowl run, despite a down year statistically in 2024. Their running back room, anchored by Saquon Barkley, was ranked fourth by Pro Football Focus, with backups AJ Dillon and Will Shipley expected to bolster the unit's depth and special teams. At quarterback, Tanner McKee has secured the backup role behind starter Jalen Hurts after impressive late-season performances, while rookie Kyle McCord is projected to hold the QB3 spot over Dorian Thompson-Robinson, reflecting the Eagles' strategy of developing late-round quarterbacks as trade assets. These moves underscore the Eagles' focus on maintaining roster strength and depth across critical positions in pursuit of continued success.
