  • No action for second straight SB

    McCoy was active but did not log a snap during the Buccaneers' 31-9 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV on Sunday.

    Analysis: The veteran has now been to two Super Bowls in which he hasn't logged a snap, as in addition to failing to get into Sunday's contest, he was a healthy scratch for the Chiefs' Super Bowl LIV win over the 49ers a year ago. After inking a one-year deal with the Buccaneers last offseason, McCoy ultimately recorded just 25 touches (10 rushes, 15 receptions) all season, as both subsequent signee Leonard Fournette and rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn ate into his opportunities. McCoy never touched the ball…read more

  • One snap in conference title game

    McCoy logged just one snap from scrimmage without a touch during the Buccaneers' 31-26 win over the Packers in Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

    Analysis: The veteran back was active for the second straight postseason contest, but just as in a divisional-round win over the Saints, McCoy didn't have a chance to touch the ball against the Packers. Given his sparse usage over the last several weeks, it appears likely McCoy could be headed for a quiet Super Bowl for the second straight year after being saddled with an inactive designation for the Buccaneers' upcoming title-game opponent, the Chiefs, in last season's edition of the contest.

  • No action in playoff win

    McCoy was active for Sunday's divisional-round win over the Saints but logged just two snaps from scrimmage and went without a carry or target.

    Analysis: The veteran running back was in uniform at the expense of rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn, but McCoy never saw a touch during the contest. Coach Bruce Arians once again may opt to have McCoy in uniform in Sunday's NFC Championship Game due to his experience, but unless injuries strike Leonard Fournette and/or Ronald Jones, the 32-year-old may play a minimal-to-non-existent role.

  • Practices in full

    McCoy (illness) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: McCoy was forced to miss last weekend's wild-card win over Washington due to an ailment, but he now appears back to full health. With Ronald Jones (quadriceps) still not practicing, it's possible that the veteran could get a chance at handling an expanded depth role along with Ke'Shawn Vaughn during Sunday's divisional-round game against the Saints. Of course, Leonard Fournette would be the clear favorite to lead Tampa Bay's backfield if Jones is limited or can't go.

  • Downgraded to out

    The Buccaneers have ruled McCoy (illness) out for Saturday's wild-card matchup at Washington, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy was initially listed as questionable on Thursday's injury report, but it appears that his ailment is severe enough to rule out any chances of playing this weekend. The veteran's absence could open up more opportunities for Ke'Shawn Vaughn, who stands to operate in a No. 3 role behind Ronald Jones and Leonard Fournette.

  • Questionable with ailment

    McCoy (illness) didn't practice Thursday and is questionable for Saturday's game in Washington.

    Analysis: McCoy missed Tuesday's practice with a "non-injury" designation before participating fully Wednesday, but it appears as though he's now dealing with an illness. If he's unable to receive full medical clearance in time for Saturday's wild-card matchup, Ke'Shawn Vaughn could end up handling increased duties as the No. 3 option in Tampa Bay's backfield.

  • Resumes practicing fully

    McCoy (non-injury related) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: McCoy sat out Tuesday's session, but his full activity a day later implies he was merely receiving a maintenance day. The veteran running back should be available for Saturday's wild-card game in Washington, though he may not necessarily be active for the contest if head coach Bruce Arians prefers to proceed with Leonard Fournette as the team's primary passing-down back.

  • Listed as DNP

    McCoy (non-injury) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Carmen Vitali of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy was inactive for this past Sunday's game against the Falcons and his presence on the Buccaneers' estimated injury report Tuesday suggests that the running back isn't a lock to be available for Saturday night's playoff opener against Washington.

  • Won't dress for Week 17

    McCoy (non-injury) is listed as inactive heading into Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Analysis: Despite being present at practice Wednesday through Friday, McCoy is dealing with a noninjury-related issue of some kind that will cause him to miss his sixth game of the regular season. With Tampa Bay preparing to go on the road for a wild-card matchup next weekend, McCoy will return to a backup offensive role once able to rejoin the team. The 32-year-old has totaled 72 scrimmage yards on nine offensive touches in his three most recent appearances Weeks 14 through 16.

  • Used exclusively as pass catcher

    McCoy did not log a carry in Saturday's 47-7 win over the Lions but brought in his only target for five yards.

    Analysis: The veteran back wasn't able to garner work in the ground game despite Ronald Jones (finger/reserve/COVID-19) sitting out a second straight game, as coach Bruce Arians opted to give rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn extended opportunity in the second half. McCoy was therefore limited to just one reception over his 13 snaps from scrimmage, making the four rush attempts he logged against the Vikings in Week 14 seem like an outlier at this point. McCoy is likely headed for minimal action again during a Week…read more

  • Limited to pass-catching role

    McCoy did not log a carry in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Falcons but secured all three targets for 32 yards.

    Analysis: McCoy was slated to perhaps see a handful of carries as the primary third-down back as part of the domino effect of Ronald Jones' (finger/reserve/COVID-19) absence Sunday, but he saw Leonard Fournette (14 carries) and Ke'Shawn Vaughn (two carries) handle all the backfield rushing work. However, with a 17-0 halftime deficit tilting the Buccaneers toward the pass, McCoy benefited in the form of his trio of looks through the air. The veteran has a combined eight touches (four rushing, four…read more

  • Slated to handle third-down duties

    McCoy projects to primarily fill a third-down back role in Sunday's game against the Falcons, with Leonard Fournette and rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn slated to handle mostly early down work, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The veteran saw his first touches since Week 6 in last Sunday's win over the Vikings, gaining 35 total yards (32 rushing, three receiving) across 16 snaps from scrimmage. McCoy is now expected to have a steady role for the second straight game due to the absence of Ronald Jones (finger/reserve/COVID-19), with Laine noting the 32-year-old will be given a chance to put his receiving prowess to work on passing downs once again. McCoy's conditioning is reportedly a bit behind where it ideally…read more

  • Efficient with rare carries

    McCoy rushed four times for 32 yards and secured his only target for a three-yard reception in the Buccaneers' 26-14 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

    Analysis: With Leonard Fournette a healthy scratch, McCoy saw his first touches since Week 6 and nearly matched the six carries on the season he'd come into the game with. The veteran unsurprisingly looked quick and decisive on his runs, as he has fresh legs after having played very little over the last 12 months when also factoring in the quiet conclusion to his Chiefs tenure last season. McCoy's solid production may have earned him another chance to serve as a complementary back in a Week 15 divisional…read more

  • One snap against old squad

    McCoy logged just one offensive snap and did not record any statistics in the Buccaneers' 27-24 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.

    Analysis: McCoy has now logged a combined four snaps over the last six games, with all of those concentrated between Weeks 10 and 12. The veteran running back has been rendered an absolute nonfactor when Ronald Jones and Leonard Fournette are healthy, and even rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn's inactive status didn't equate to any action for McCoy on Sunday versus his most recent team.

  • Left out of game plan

    McCoy didn't record a snap in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.

    Analysis: Despite Ke'Shawn Vaughn serving as a healthy scratch for a third straight game, McCoy wasn't utilized at all Monday, conceding the backfield duties to Leonard Fournette and Ronald Jones. This was the fourth time in five games that McCoy didn't log a snap on offense.

  • Logs three snaps in Week 10 win

    McCoy did not record any statistics over three snaps from scrimmage in the Buccaneers' 46-23 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: The veteran running back's irrelevance persisted in Week 10, although McCoy at least saw a smidgen of game action after not logging a single snap over the three prior games. McCoy appears destined for a similar outlook during the second half of the season as long as the likes of Ronald Jones and Leonard Fournette remain healthy in front of him.

  • Lack of game action persists

    McCoy failed to log a snap for the third consecutive game in the Buccaneers' 38-3 loss to the Saints in Week 9.

    Analysis: The multi-time Pro Bowler has seemingly become a forgotten man in the Buccaneers backfield, despite retaining active status each week. McCoy last received a touch from scrimmage in Week 6 against the Packers, when he rushed four times for one yards and also recorded one catch for six yards. Even with rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn inactive, McCoy seems to have little chance for meaningful opportunities -- if any at all -- as long as Ronald Jones and Leonard Fournette are healthy ahead of him.

  • No snaps in Week 7 win

    McCoy didn't log a snap from scrimmage in Sunday's 45-20 win over the Raiders, with the return of Leonard Fournette from an ankle injury playing a significant role, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McCoy had just received his second-highest snap count of the season (19) in the Week 6 win over the Packers, but that came while Fournette was inactive. In Week 7, coach Bruce Arians opted to utilize Fournette in a change-of-pace and nickel-situation role in place of McCoy, with the former proving he was up to the task with 97 yards from scrimmage on 17 total touches (11 carries, six receptions). Arians went as far as labeling Fournette as the team's "nickel back" following the game, leading to…read more

  • Logs five touches in return

    McCoy (ankle) rushed four times for one yard and brought in his only target for six yards in the Buccaneers' 38-10 win over the Packers on Sunday.

    Analysis: The veteran made his return from a one-game absence, but as his final numbers imply, his impact was minimal, even with Leonard Fournette (ankle) inactive. McCoy's four rush attempts were actually a season high, but after logging a combined 11 targets in Weeks 2 and 3, he's seen just a target apiece in each of his last two contests. McCoy could eventually be surpassed by rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn on the depth chart, although the rookie will likely have to further prove his mettle in pass protection…read more

  • Ready for return

    McCoy (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Green Bay, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Ke'Shawn Vaughn filled in as the passing-down specialist with McCoy inactive for last Thursday's loss to the Bears. While the rookie has flashed some potential, McCoy will probably take the role back now that he's healthy.

    McCoy (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Like McCoy, fellow running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) has also been limited in both of the Buccaneers' first two practices of Week 6 after both essentially sat out the Week 5 loss to the Bears with injuries (Fournette played one snap). Assuming both are active for Sunday's game against the Packers, McCoy will probably find himself behind starter Ronald Jones and Fournette in the pecking order at the position. McCoy has seen his offensive snap share decrease over each of his four appearances…read more

  • Limited Wednesday

    McCoy (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: McCoy's Grade 2 ankle sprain forced him to sit out the Buccaneers' Week 5 loss to the Bears, but he seems to have made some progress. With both Ronald Jones and Ke'Shawn Vaughn practicing fully to begin the week and Leonard Fournette (ankle) trending in the right direction, the Buccaneers won't have much incentive to rush McCoy back on the field. Coach Bruce Arians has called the veteran back week-to-week.

  • Not suiting up Thursday

    McCoy (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game in Chicago, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McCoy emerged from the Buccaneers' Week 4 win over the Chargers with a Grade 2 ankle sprain, prompting the team to label him as week-to-week. Elsewhere in the Bucs' backfield, Leonard Fournette (ankle) is doubtful to suit up Thursday, so Ronald Jones is slated to be the unquestioned lead back, with Ke'Shawn Vaughn serving as a change-of-pace option.

  • Week-to-week, unlikely for Thursday

    McCoy is considered week-to-week due to a Grade 2 ankle sprain and expected to miss Thursday's contest against the Bears, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: McCoy only had one carry for three yards and one catch for three yards before being forced out of Sunday's win over the Chargers, and it now looks as though he'll be forced to miss at least one game before retaking the field. On a more positive note for the Buccaneers, coach Bruce Arians has left the door open on Leonard Fournette (ankle) potentially suiting up in Chicago. For the time being, Ronald Jones and Ke'Shawn Vaughn are the only healthy running backs on Tampa Bay's roster.

  • Ruled out Week 4

    McCoy (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game against the Chargers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: With Leonard Fournette (ankle) out of the lineup, McCoy had a chance to spell lead back Ronald Jones, but an ankle injury of his own won't allow him to continue Sunday. As a result, McCoy will finish Week 4 with one carry for three yards and one reception for three yards. For the rest of Sunday, Ke'Shawn Vaughn will serve as the primary backup to Jones.

    McCoy injured his ankle during Sunday's game versus the Chargers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy had a three-yard carry on the Buccaneers' first drive before leaving the contest. Deemed questionable to return, he'll vacate snaps to Ke'Shawn Vaughn behind lead back Ronald Jones with Leonard Fournette (ankle) sidelined Week 4.

  • Exclusively in pass-catching role

    McCoy brought in two of four targets for 24 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-10 win over the Broncos on Sunday. He did not record a carry.

    Analysis: The veteran back wasn't used in the running game for the second time in the first three weeks, although he did manage to record multiple receptions for the second straight contest. McCoy seems to be entrenched in a low-volume pass-catching role that won't have much fantasy utility outside of the deepest of PPR formats, at least as long as Ronald Jones and Leonard Fournette remain healthy.

  • Makes five grabs in Week 2 win

    McCoy rushed once for minus-5 yards and secured five of seven targets for 26 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-17 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: After logging just a sole touch in Week 1, McCoy finished second in receptions only to Mike Evans on the afternoon. However, he also dropped a would-be touchdown on a perfectly placed pass by Tom Brady, preventing the veteran running back from a much bigger performance. The increase in McCoy's role compared to the opener was at least mildly encouraging, but it remains to be seen whether it will hold in a Week 3 road matchup against the Broncos.

  • One touch in Week 1

    McCoy did not record a carry and brought in his only target for two yards in the Buccaneers' 34-23 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

    Analysis: Ronald Jones comfortably paced the running backs with 17 carries, while McCoy's fellow new arrival Leonard Fournette was a distant second with five rushing touches. That, combined with a game script that progressively ran unfavorable to the running game, left McCoy the odd man out on the ground and afforded him just his one receiving opportunity overall. The fact both Jones and Fournette are also capable receivers out of the backfield makes McCoy potentially redundant over the long run, but for…read more

  • Opens as No. 2 back on depth chart

    McCoy is listed as the primary backup to starter Ronald Jones on the first regular-season edition of the Buccaneers' unofficial depth chart released Monday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy signed with the Buccaneers on July 30, so he had the benefit of a full training camp to acclimate to coach Bruce Arians' offense. That may have been the key to McCoy being listed ahead of new arrival Leonard Fournette for the time being, but it's also very possible the slotting is a formality more than anything else. While the bruising Fournette is a natural candidate to share early down work with Jones, McCoy seems like an excellent fit to primarily handle third-down duties at this stage…read more

  • Could handle passing downs?

    McCoy could still have a role after the Bucs signed Leonard Fournette, potentially getting work on third downs and in the passing game, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Dare Ogunbowale was the team's passing-down specialist last year, but it now appears McCoy could take over the role while Fournette and Ronald Jones handle the vast majority of carries. The 32-year-old averaged only 6.5 yards per catch last season and 7.0 the year before, but he does have 503 receptions to his name, including five seasons with 50 or more. It's not a role that would be likely to produce mainstream fantasy value, but it would at least keep McCoy on the roster and actively…read more

  • Signs with Tampa Bay

    McCoy has signed a one-year deal with the Buccaneers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The addition of McCoy gives the Bucaneers' backfield added depth and experience to go along with returnees Ronald Jones and Dare Ogunbowale, along with rookie Ke'Shawn Vaughn. At 32, McCoy may not be up for every-down duties, but he could prove useful as a pass-catching back in the team's Tom Brady-helmed offense.

  • Hoping for Philly return?

    McCoy believes he could be a fit with the Eagles, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. "I could see that," McCoy said Wednesday on NFL Network's Good Morning Football. "I'm going to keep my options open, though. I could see myself there in Philly. Like I said, that's home, so you never know."

    Analysis: Philadelphia's backfield is among the least experienced in the league, with 25-year-old Corey Clement serving as the elder statesmen while second-year pro Miles Sanders is the only one with 175 or more touches in the NFL. The soon-to-be 32-year-old McCoy lands on the other end of the spectrum, perhaps losing a couple steps after piling up 2,950 touches across 11 pro seasons. He averaged 4.6 yards on 101 carries for the Chiefs last year, but between fumbles (three) and his inefficient receiving…read more

  • Wants to play two more years

    McCoy is not considering retirement and said Sunday, "I really just want to play two more years," ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McCoy, still a free agent, compiled a solid 465 yards and four touchdowns on 101 carries (4.6 YPC) across 13 regular-season games with the Chiefs in 2019. However, he did see his utilization decline down the stretch of the season, culminating in a healthy scratch during the Super Bowl. The 31-year-old also noted that he's fully healthy, saying "my body feels good," and said that he wants to provide a veteran presence within a competing team's backfield. At this point, it looks likely that the…read more

  • Likely leaving Kansas City

    McCoy isn't going to re-sign with the Chiefs, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: McCoy played just one snap in the playoffs, including a healthy scratch for the Super Bowl. However, he averaged 4.6 yards per carry during the regular season, his best mark since 2016 and perhaps a sign that he can still contribute to an NFL team. The veteran running back will turn 32 in July.

  • Inactive for Super Bowl

    McCoy is inactive for Sunday's Super Bowl against the 49ers, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With McCoy a healthy scratch Sunday, Damien Williams will continue to head the Chiefs' backfield, while Darwin Thompson is on hand to work in a complementary role. McCoy's contract with Kansas City expires after the current season and it seems unlikely he'll be back with the team for the 2020 campaign.

  • Possible inactive Sunday

    McCoy could be trending toward a healthy inactive for Sunday's Super Bowl matchup against the 49ers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: It's not altogether surprising news considering McCoy has seen just one snap since Week 16. The veteran running back posted six games with at least 40 rushing yards through the first eight weeks of the season, but he has largely ceded time to the likes of Damien Williams and Darwin Thompson since then. Expect Williams to continue to accumulate the majority of the snaps out of the backfield in the event McCoy is sidelined Sunday.

  • Avoids injury report

    McCoy (illness) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.

    Analysis: Prior to the AFC Championship Game, McCoy managed just one limited practice due to an illness, which wasn't enough to allow him to suit up in the victory over the Titans. The veteran running back hasn't had a touch since Week 15, yielding to Damien Williams and (to a lesser extent) rookie Darwin Thompson. A similar breakdown of the backfield work is possible for the Chiefs' Super Bowl matchup with the 49ers next weekend.

    Analysis: After missing practice both Wednesday and Thursday, McCoy returned to a limited session Friday.

    Analysis: McCoy logged just one snap and zero carries in the Chiefs' divisional-round win over the Texans last weekend, so even if he does suit up this Sunday against the Titans, he'd be in line to remain in a reserve role behind starting running back Damien Williams.

  • Under the weather

    McCoy won't practice Wednesday due to an illness, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy will have two more opportunities to return to practice this week and enter Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs without a designation. Assuming McCoy gains clearance for the game, he'll likely hold only a minimal role in the game plan. McCoy hasn't recorded a carry or target since Week 15 of the regular season.

  • No snaps in regular-season finale

    Despite being active for the regular-season finale, McCoy did not take the field against the Chargers.

    Analysis: McCoy's involvement in the Chiefs' offense has screeched to a grinding halt; he was a healthy scratch in Week 16 before spending Week 17 on the bench. The veteran back finished the 2019 regular season with just 101 carries for 465 yards and four touchdowns and will likely see a minimal role in the playoffs before becoming a free agent again this offseason.

  • Likely to rejoin backfield mix

    McCoy will likely be active for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Chargers after the Chiefs placed Spencer Ware (shoulder) on injured reserve Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Analysis: With Ware joining Darrel Williams (hamstring) on IR, the Chiefs are down to three healthy running backs in McCoy, Damien Williams and Darwin Thompson. Damien should continue to headline the Kansas City backfield for the foreseeable future after staging a successful return from a three-game absence due to a rib injury in last week's win over Chicago, leaving Thompson and McCoy to vie for change-of-pace work. McCoy had been inactive in Week 16, but Thompson may have only gotten the nod ahead of…read more

  • Inactive Sunday night

    McCoy is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Bears, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: With McCoy a healthy scratch, Damien Williams, Spencer Ware and Darwin Thompson will handle the Chiefs' Week 16 backfield duties.

  • Bottled up in the cold

    McCoy ran for 16 yards on six carries during Sunday's 23-3 win over Denver.

    Analysis: Despite the blustery conditions and depleted Denver front seven, the Chiefs actually found more success through the air than on the ground Sunday. McCoy finished with fewer carries and yards than fellow backs Darwin Thompson and Spencer Ware. McCoy has now been limited to 29.7 total yards per game during Damien Williams' (ribs) three-game absence with just one touchdown. Regardless of Williams' health next week against the Bears, McCoy is a risky play given his recent decline in production and…read more

  • Minimal impact in win

    McCoy carried the ball 11 times for 39 yards and caught one of three targets for four yards in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: The Chiefs' backfield had little success collectively, and McCoy ended up leading the team in rushing yards on the afternoon. With Darrel Williams (hamstring) out for the season and Damien Williams (ribs) also banged up, McCoy could be the Chiefs' No. 1 RB again in Week 15 against the Broncos, but increased touches won't guarantee fantasy viability.

  • May get extra work Week 14

    McCoy could be in store for increased snaps Sunday against the Patriots with Damien Williams (ribs) uncertain to play and with Darrel Williams (hamstring) landing on injured reserve, Patrik Walker of CBS Sports reports.

    Analysis: Damien hasn't participated in either of the Chiefs' first two practices of the week and looks to be trending toward a second straight absence, while Darrel -- who played 27 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 13 win over Oakland -- is now out of the backfield picture for the rest of the season. Assuming Damien sits out against New England, McCoy, Darwin Thompson and the recently signed Spencer Ware would represent the lone healthy options in the backfield, with the latter two combining…read more

  • Salvages day with score

    McCoy carried the ball five times for 10 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 40-9 rout of the Raiders.

    Analysis: Despite Damien Williams (ribs) being inactive and Darrel Williams leaving the game early due to a hamstring injury, McCoy still didn't have much success aside from a three-yard TD run in the third quarter, and it was rookie Darwin Thompson who wound up leading the Chiefs in carries on the afternoon. Depending on the health of the rest of the backfield, McCoy could be in for a larger role again next week, but he'll likely struggle to produce against the Patriots' league-leading defense.

  • Set for key role

    McCoy will handle an expanded role with Damien Williams (ribs) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McCoy is the odds-on favorite to lead the Chiefs in carries, but Darrel Williams also figures to have a significant role, and even Darwin Thompson could have some level of involvement. Darrel actually led the team with 11 carries in Week 11 when Damien suffered the rib injury, in part because McCoy left the game to be evaluated for a head injury. Having avoided the concussion protocol, McCoy came out of a Week 12 bye with no limitations in practice, setting him up for a significant role against…read more

  • Good to go this week

    McCoy (head) didn't appear Wednesday on the Chiefs' Week 13 injury report.

    Analysis: Coach Andy Reid clarified Monday that McCoy wasn't in the NFL's concussion protocol at the end of the Chiefs' Nov. 18 win over the Chargers, and the running back's absence from the first practice report of Week 13 confirms that. Meanwhile, Damien Williams (ribs) didn't take the field Wednesday, and if he's unable to play Sunday against the Raiders, Darrel Williams and McCoy would be in line to head the team's backfield.

  • Didn't enter concussion protocol

    Coach Andy Reid relayed Monday that McCoy wasn't in the NFL's concussion protocol at the end of the Chiefs' Nov. 18 win over the Chargers, BJ Kissel of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Per the report, "there was some confusion after the game," and Reid decided Monday to clear that up. In any case, this nugget suggests that following the team's Week 12 bye, McCoy should be fine for Sunday's game against the Raiders. Wednesday's injury report should confirm that, one way or the other, and at the same time provide an update on the status of Damien Williams, who suffered a rib injury Week 11.

  • Under evaluation for concussion

    McCoy has exited Monday's game against the Chargers to be evaluated for a concussion.

    Analysis: McCoy registered 57 total yards and a score before exiting in the fourth quarter. With Damien Williams (ribs) already ruled out, Darrel Williams is the only healthy running back left on the active roster.

  • Returns to action Week 11

    McCoy is active for Monday's game against the Chargers, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy received a bit of "load management" Week 10, when the Chiefs made him a healthy scratch. Now back in action, he likely will split the running back workload with Damien Williams, who missed practice in advance of this contest to deal with a family matter. In the seven outings in which both players have been available this season, McCoy has averaged 9.7 touches and 47.3 yards from scrimmage per game with no end-zone visits.

  • Healthy scratch deemed maintenance

    Coach Andy Reid suggested after Sunday's 35-32 loss to the Titans that McCoy was a healthy inactive for the contest for maintenance-related reasons, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports. "LeSean's not getting any younger so it's important I manage him the right way as we go," Reid said.

    Analysis: Though Reid's comments offer hope that McCoy may have a role in the Chiefs' game plan again at some point in the second half of the season, it's worth noting that the veteran running back played a season-low six snaps a week earlier in the victory over Minnesota. Meanwhile, Damien Williams has fared well as the Chiefs' lead back, averaging 6.5 yards per carry on 31 attempts and catching all seven of his targets over the past two games. Williams' quality work of late probably lessens the…read more

  • Inactive Sunday

    McCoy is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Per the report, the move is related to the running back's fumbling issues, Damien Williams' good health, and the team's desire to get Darwin Thompson into the backfield mix.

  • Minimal impact in Week 9

    McCoy recorded just three rushes for nine yards and caught his lone target for no gain Sunday against the Vikings.

    Analysis: McCoy saw the field for just 10 percent of the Chiefs' offensive snaps Sunday, with no clear indication of exactly why that was the case. Coach Andy Reid may have decided to roll with the hot hand, which turned out to be Damien Williams against the Vikings. In any event, McCoy's volatility in terms of workload likely eliminates much of his fantasy value.
