Bad
There is no introduction necessary for the bad tier, but we will do one anyway. The relief quarterback play was flat-out bad. The offense actively got worse when this guy entered the game, and his play was a contributing factor to that.
Tyson Bagent ↔ (SAME)
To the shock of absolutely no one, Tyson Bagent has not touched the field since he was benched for Case Keenum at the end of the Green Bay Packers matchup. Bagent recently had a contract extension and proved that he was far from the guy the Chicago Bears saw during preseason. He went for zero touchdowns and three interceptions in his two starts and half a quarter of relief play when Caleb Williams hurt his hamstring.
Carson Wentz ↓ (DROP tier)
After one good outing, helped drastically by his defense causing short fields, and one lackluster showing in his first start of the season, Week 9 was a tiebreaker of sorts for Minnesota Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz. Well, as we can see, he fell out of the game manager tier. Wentz had an awful outing against a subpar Buffalo Bills defense on Monday.
He was missing open throws and could not score with any kind of consistency despite having all of the short fields that he could ever ask for. Additionally, the veteran backup quarterback had a trio of turnovers in what turned into a blowout loss to the Bills. Eventually, he was benched for Max Brosmer, who looked significantly better than Wentz (do not want to overreact to one drive at the end of the game, though), drawing an unceremonious end to the night in Minnesota.
Tanner McKee ↓ (DROP tier)
Tanner McKee was certainly an experiment to behold. To be fair to the backup quarterback, McKee had a halfway decent showing on Monday Night Football against the Dallas Cowboys. However, the Philadelphia Eagles went in a different direction after a showing in Week 8 where McKee could barely move the ball.
Still, his play against the Cowboys showed that there is something there if the Eagles end up needing him again this season. However, he had a couple of mediocre to bad performances sandwiched in between that. As such, he has a higher ranking than Bagent, but firmly belongs in the bad tier until there comes a time when we may see him again this season.
Joe Milton (NEW)
After the Philadelphia Eagles benched McKee, the next man up for the team was Joe Milton. Well, it was not much prettier than what McKee put on tape. Milton went for 169 yards through the air and 64 on the ground.
The reason why he is above McKee is because of his rushing upside for this offense. On a team with Saquon Barkley, Milton was the leading rusher for his lone start up to this point in the 2026 NFL season. As a result, he earned a better spot than his teammate, but it was still far from an outing that can be defined as good.
