Philadelphia Eagles backup quarterback Tanner McKee (thumb) was not spotted at practice on Sunday, according to Eliot Shorr-Parks of 94WIP. McKee fractured his thumb earlier this month and has not practiced in roughly two weeks. The 25-year-old was solid while filling in last year, as he completed 30 of his 45 pass attempts for 323 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions. With Thursday's regular-season opener fast approaching, it appears unlikely that McKee will be healthy enough to suit up. If he's inactive, Sam Howell would operate as the Eagles' No. 2 quarterback behind Jalen Hurts.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart has been a dynamic player since taking over as his team's starter in Week 4. Across six games (four starts) this season, Dart has completed 60.2% of his pass attempts for 791 yards, seven touchdowns, and three interceptions. He's been most impressive with his legs, rushing for 178 yards and three touchdowns on 37 attempts. Dart and the Giants will travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles in Week 8, which marks the second time in the last three weeks that these two teams will square off. Dart played well in his first game against Philadelphia, recording 253 total yards and two touchdowns. However, it's worth noting that the Eagles played the entire game without star defensive lineman Jalen Carter and most of the game without top cornerback Quinyon Mitchell, both of whom will be active in Week 8. Dart's rushing ability gives him a safe fantasy floor, but he may have a difficult time as a passer in a tough road matchup. He profiles as a borderline fantasy QB1 in Week 8 against the Eagles.
