Eagles sign QB Josh McCown to practice squad

All jokes aside. Curious what would occur in your Franchises if say the QB "room" , not just 1 tested positive say the Thurs/Friday before a Game?

If anything this actually makes sense from a Covid 2020 perspective. Lock in a QB who already knows your Offense, can be kept apprised of any changes or additions to the playbook instead of scrambling 12th Hour to find a FA QB that 1) has to pass protocol before even suiting up and 2) most likely knows absolutely nothing about your Offense/Personel?

In other words ,the polar opposite of Josh McCown.

This is a smart move.

Don't be too harsh on him for his bad play in the Seahawks playoff game. He shredded his hamstring a few plays in but they had no backup so he just played on one leg.

This is a COVID insurance policy and an extra coach for Hurts, Wentz, and Sudfeld if they never cash it in.

One notch above that time the Jaguars called Todd Bouman to come back for a bit, and he was literally just driving around on a tractor when he took the call or whatever.

 

 

But actually yeah, probably not a bad idea to have a guy sorta "locked in" as your experienced veteran safety net who could probably still at least kinda play, if Covid starts wreaking havoc on the season or something.  Especially since he'll be isolated from the actual team and practice squad.
