Philadelphia Eagles QB Tanner McKee (rib) is expected to serve as the No. 2 quarterback for Week 9's game versus the New York Giants, according to a source.

Why It Matters: McKee had been listed as questionable on the injury report due to a cracked rib sustained in the first quarter of Week 8's game against the Washington Commanders. He logged one full practice session and two limited practice sessions during the week.
