The Eagles signed McCord to the practice squad Thursday.
The rookie sixth-rounder wasn't able to crack the Eagles' 53-man roster, but he'll stay in Philadelphia as the team's scout team quarterback. With Tanner McKee in jeopardy of missing Week 1 due to a thumb injury, McCord could be elevated to the active roster to serve as the Eagles' emergency quarterback behind Jalen Hurts and Sam Howell.
