Eagles GM Howie Roseman Discusses Backup Quarterback Situation
The Philadelphia Eagles have retained four quarterbacks on their roster, including Tanner McKee, Andy Dalton, and rookie Cole Payton, behind starter Jalen Hurts. This decision comes after a summer filled with speculation regarding the backup quarterback position.
During a press conference, General Manager Howie Roseman highlighted the importance of the quarterback role, noting that each player brings value to the team. He refrained from naming Hurts' backup for the upcoming Week 1 game against Washington, stating that the team would keep preparation details confidential.
The Eagles are expected to release a depth chart prior to the season opener, which may provide insights into their plans for the quarterback lineup should Hurts be unavailable.
