Who Should I Start? Zach Wilson or Tanner McKee

Monday, April 22, 2:39 PM

The Denver Broncos are acquiring former No. 2 overall pick Zach Wilson from the New York Jets on Monday, according to sources. The Broncos are expected to send a 2024 sixth-round pick to the Jets for Wilson and a 2024 seventh-round selection, with the teams dividing his guaranteed camp roster bonus. The Broncos released Russell Wilson this offseason and were heading into this week's NFL draft with Jarrett Stidham as their starter under center in 2024. Wilson now has a much better shot at playing time with a change of scenery in 2024 after being benched in his final season with the Jets, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll beat out Stidham in training camp. The move to acquire Wilson also won't preclude the Broncos from selecting a QB in this year's draft, possibly as early as the first round.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tanner McKee completed 19-of-34 passes for 158 yards, adding one carry for five yards, during the team's 27-13 preseason loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Marcus Mariota was only given one series this week, completing one deep pass for 21 yards. It seems as though the Eagles wanted to provide McKee with as much of a chance to win them over and take the backup job from the veteran as possible, but this was not a particularly outstanding performance overall. With that said, the rookie has looked better than Mariota this preseason, so there is a chance he makes the final 53-man roster. If cut, the Eagles will look to stash the 23-year-old on their practice squad.
