Keegan

The Eagles are essentially at full health, so no questionable calls for Thursday’s game. McKee will be the emergency third quarterback for the contest behind Jalen Hurts and Kenny Pickett.

The former Michigan guard signed his four-year rookie contract Sunday, agreeing to terms with the Eagles. Keegan should back up left guard Landon Dickerson for a team that suddenly has a hoard of new faces in the offensive line room.

Keegan (6’5/310) earned First-Team All-Big Ten honors in 2022 and was named Second-Team All-Big Ten in 2023. A three-year starter for the Wolverines, Keegan is a physical blocker who has more than enough experience in the running game thanks to Jim Harbaugh’s run-heavy ways. He turned in an impressive combine performance, earning a 9.19 RAS which was a surprisingly high mark for a guy billed as a more average athlete. Far from an elite prospect, Keegan’s experience, accolades, and championship pedigree will make him a valuable player as far as depth along the interior is concerned.

Keegan (6'6/310) and his father came away impressed with both the Ohio State football program and the educational opportunities being offered in Columbus. Alabama has also recently offered to the Crystal Lake, Illinois, native, with Michigan and Georgia among the other programs intrigued by the tackle. On the 247Sports composite board, Keegan ranks as the No. 139 overall prospect in the 2019 class.

Keegan (6'6/310) will be on-hand in Athens when the Bulldogs play host to Auburn on Saturday. This will be his fourth official visit of the season, with Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State all receiving check-ins from the four-star tackle previously. The Crystal Lake, Illinois, native has mostly been focusing on the Big Ten as he weighs his options and this would be a nice reach of a pull by HC Kirby Smart and staff if they can sway him down to the SEC. Rivals ranks Keegan as the No. 196 overall prospect in the 2019 class.

Keegan is a hometown get for Jim Harbaugh and staff, and 247 Sports ranks him the top player in the state. HE also had offers from schools like Ohio State and Penn State, and he took an official visit to Georgia in November. The 6-foot-6, 310-pound tackle likely will need to sit while he gets stronger, but this is potentially a starter at one of the bookeneds for the Wolverines.
