Save for later

Tanner McKee failed to rally the Philadelphia Eagles in his first start since quarterback Jalen Hurts was sidelined by a blood clot. The Panthers beat the Eagles 25-14 on Sunday. The Eagles have lost four consecutive games for the first time since 2020 and for the first time since coach Nick Sirianni took over the following season. McKee finished 26 of 45 for 215 yards and a touchdown. Hurts attempted 40 passes only once this season and three times never got above 27 attempts.

McKee says he expects the offense to improve as he gets more reps in practice.
