Stanford quarterback Tanner McKee is not dissimilar from the current Houston Texans starter who came out of that same alma matter two years ago, Davis Mills. Both didn’t necessarily overwhelm on the stat sheet in their equal two years as starters within under head coach David Shaw, but both showed enough of a physical skill set to prove they’re capable of playing at a starter level in the NFL.
McKee managed to throw for 2,947 yards, 13 touchdowns and 8 interceptions with a completion percentage of 62.0 this year. The year prior, he completed 65.0 percent of his passes for 2,327 yards, 15 touchdowns and 7 interceptions. Neither stat line is eye-popping by any means, but he was a part of a not-so-great team, and often appeared as the best player on a rough Cardinal squad.
