After bringing Carson Wentz in on a tryout over the weekend, Minnesota signed the veteran QB on Sunday and subsequently traded backup Sam Howell to the Eagles. Philadelphia also received a 2026 sixth-round pick in exchange for a 2026 fifth-rounder and a 2027 seventh.

The Eagles made moves at the quarterback position on Sunday. Philadelphia first traded for backup Sam Howell from the Vikings. This was a move made in response to finding out backup Tanner McKee has a fractured thumb, and will likely miss some time. However, he is not expected to land on the injured reserve list.
