Tanner McKee gave the Philadelphia Eagles chances to stay competitive Monday night, but the backup quarterback couldn't overcome another defensive collapse and an offense that struggled late. With Jalen Hurts unavailable, McKee completed 23 of 35 passes for 211 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Philadelphia's 38-21 loss to Dallas.
McKee's best stretch came after halftime.
Trailing 20-14, the Eagles opened the third quarter with a 17-play, 84-yard drive that consumed more than nine minutes and ended with McKee finding rookie Makai Lemon for his first NFL touchdown. The drive offered a glimpse of what Philadelphia's offense could look like with patience, execution, and reliable playmakers.
McKee managed the possession effectively, helping the Eagles convert key situations and take a 21-20 lead.
Unfortunately, momentum faded as Dallas kept scoring and Philadelphia's injury issues mounted.
