The boo birds were out in Philadelphia Thursday night when Matt McGloin entered in the second quarter of the Eagles' third preseason game against the Miami Dolphins.

The former Penn State signal-caller has been the subject of fan unrest in his bid to make the Eagles roster. He has completed 62 of 88 passes for 491 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions in three games.

McGloin has taken plenty of snaps as the Eagles limit the exposure of starter Carson Wentz and play without injured backup Nick Foles. McGloin currently leads the NFL in preseason attempts, yards and interceptions.
