Eagles bench QB Tanner McKee for Joe Milton III ahead of Giants game
November 5, 2026
The Eagles are shaking things up at quarterback for their clash with the Giants on Sunday.
Joe Milton III will start for Philadelphia, according to ESPN, as Tanner McKee has been benched.
McKee had started for the Eagles since Jalen Hurts was placed on injured reserve due to blood clots.
The Eagles (2-6) lost all three of McKee’s starts and are on a six-game losing streak while sitting in last place in the NFC East.
McKee, 26, has 638 yards passing, two touchdowns and two interceptions this season.
Milton, 26, was a sixth-round pick by the Patriots in 2024 and made four appearances for the Cowboys last season. The Eagles signed Milton off Dallas’ practice squad last month.
