Tanner McKee (Eagles QB): Turned heads in Week 1 with a performance that included 252 passing yards and two touchdowns. Can he maintain that showing under the spotlight of MetLife Stadium?
Saquon Barkley (Eagles RB): Fresh off a historic 2K season, Philly may limit his snaps—but his preseason touches could further highlight his burst behind a top-tier offensive line.
