The Detroit Lions have proposed a trade to acquire quarterback Tanner McKee from the Philadelphia Eagles for a 2027 fourth-round pick. This follows the retirement of Lions quarterback Teddy Bridgewater. The Eagles currently have Jalen Hurts, Andy Dalton, and Tanner McKee on their roster, but could look to move McKee due to his lack of meaningful playing time. A trade could provide depth for the Lions while benefiting the Eagles, who may want to maintain their quarterback options behind Hurts.
