At the Philadelphia Eagles’ Quarterback Factory™️, the cycle of player acquisition remains active, with reports from ESPN’s Adam Schefter indicating the signing of Will Grier.
Originally drafted by the Panthers in the third round of 2019, Grier has seen stints with various teams since then:
– Carolina Panthers (2019-2020)
– Dallas Cowboys (2021-2022)
– Cincinnati Bengals (2023)
– New England Patriots (2023)
– Los Angeles Chargers (2023)
Grier’s familiarity with Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore from their time in Dallas and briefly with the Chargers last season adds an interesting dynamic. Despite starting two games for the Panthers as a rookie in 2019, where he struggled with zero touchdowns and four interceptions resulting in losses for the Panthers, Grier hasn’t seen regular-season action since then.
The Eagles’ quarterback roster now comprises:
– Jalen Hurts
– Kenny Pickett
– Tanner McKee
– Will Grier

Grier’s arrival could assist Moore in implementing his offensive scheme and potentially earn him a spot on the practice squad. Alternatively, if Tanner McKee’s performance during the regular season doesn’t match his promising training camp and preseason showings, Grier might emerge as genuine competition for him during the 2024 camp.
