Vikings Dominate Eagles: A Preseason Showdown to Remember

Tanner McKee’s impressive performance from the second week of preseason did not carry into the third week for the Philadelphia Eagles. The team’s 2023 sixth-round draft pick excelled last week, achieving a PFF passing grade of 90.4. However, during the final preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings, he committed two turnover-worthy plays, not accounting for an interception from a well-thrown pass. The Vikings dominated the game, winning 26-3, and forced five turnovers on downs while recovering two fumbles.

PFF’s analysts meticulously evaluated every player and play in real-time, with the complete grades and data set to be released following a detailed review tomorrow at 12 p.m. EST. In the meantime, preliminary data and snap counts from the game have been compiled, and a standout player has been identified for exceptional performance.

PLAYER OF THE GAME

After Tanner McKee’s surprising quarterback showing in Week 2, it was Jaren Hall’s moment to shine in Week 3. The Vikings’ fifth-round draft pick from 2023 exhibited strong skills following a brief cameo last week, completing 17 of 25 passes for nearly 189 yards and two touchdowns. He concluded the preseason without any turnover-worthy plays over more than 50 dropbacks.
