Eagles bolster QB room with veteran Andy Dalton trade

The Philadelphia Eagles traded a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Carolina Panthers for veteran quarterback Andy Dalton. Dalton won't threaten Jalen Hurts’ job but adds experienced depth and a different perspective to Philly’s QB room, potentially giving the team flexibility on QB2 Tanner McKee. At roughly $4 million for 2026, his contract is more than typical QB3 money, but his long NFL resume could help install a new system and stabilize the depth chart.
