News

  • Full participant Friday

    McCoy (elbow) was listed as a full participant on Friday's injury report and should be available to suit up Sunday versus the Chargers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy made his second straight start in place of injured quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) during Monday's game against San Francisco, though he came out of this game with a right elbow injury. The 36-year-old backup was then limited during practice Wednesday and Thursday before logging a full session Friday. As a result, McCoy should slot back in behind Murray, who does not carry an injury designation and is expected to be a full go against the Chargers.

  • Tending to elbow injury

    McCoy was a limited participant at Wednesday's walk-through practice due to a right elbow injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: In his first start in place of Kyler Murray (hamstring) in Week 10, McCoy picked up a left knee issue. He overcame that injury and drew another start in Monday's loss to the 49ers in Mexico City, only to pick up a new health concern coming out of that game. Murray seemingly is in line to be available Sunday against the Chargers after being listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimate. If that comes to pass, Murray will push McCoy back to a reserve role, assuming the latter is…read more

  • Trampled by San Francisco

    McCoy completed 24 of his 34 passes for 218 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Monday's 38-10 loss to San Francisco.

    Analysis: McCoy got his second straight start with Kyler Murray (hamstring) sidelined. He began the performance in promising enough fashion, as he led Arizona to 10 points across its first five possessions while relying heavily on DeAndre Hopkins. However, things fell apart rapidly in the second half, with the result being an abysmal performance from both an individual and team perspective. Murray has been a game-time decision each of the last two weeks, which makes it realistic for him to return in Week…read more

  • Getting another start for Murray

    McCoy will start in place of Kyler Murray (hamstring) on Monday against the 49ers in Mexico City, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: With Murray out for a second consecutive contest, McCoy again will get the nod under center. McCoy missed two snaps to have his left leg looked at during a Week 10 win at the Rams and then was limited at the first practice of Week 11 prep due to a knee injury. Having said that, he was able to log full sessions Friday and Saturday and will look to put up another fair effort Monday after completing 26 of 37 passes for 238 yards and one touchdown during the aforementioned victory. Helping McCoy's…read more

  • Looks poised for Week 11 start

    McCoy appears on track to make a second consecutive start Monday against the 49ers in Mexico City with Kyler Murray (hamstring) listed as questionable but not expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Josina Anderson of CBS Sports further supports Rapoport's report, noting that McCoy will "definitively" start Monday, with the Cardinals having known since last week that Murray wasn't on track to play in Mexico City. Though Murray at least has taken some steps forward in his recovery, practicing on a limited basis Thursday through Saturday, the Cardinals apparently aren't convinced that he's healed enough to return to the lineup. A final word on his status won't arrive until the Cardinals…read more

  • Full practice Friday

    McCoy (knee) practiced in full Friday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy appears to be a step ahead of No. 1 quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) with their respective levels of health. While McCoy followed Thursday's limited session with all activity one day later, Murray has logged back-to-back capped practices to begin Week 11 prep. How both fare Saturday likely will be the deciding factor for coach Kliff Kingsbury ahead of Monday's game versus the 49ers, but McCoy seems to have a chance to earn a second straight start in place of Murray.

  • Logs limited session Thursday

    McCoy (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Both McCoy and No. 1 quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) had a cap on their reps to kick off Week 11 prep. Coach Kliff Kingsbury isn't expected to make a decision on the Cardinals' starting QB for Monday's game versus the 49ers in Mexico City until later this week, but if McCoy gets the nod over Murray for a second straight week, he'll be coming off a 238-yard, one-touchdown passing performance this past Sunday at the Rams.

  • Dealing with knee concern

    Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Wednesday that McCoy is tending to a minor knee injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Kingsbury also added that a decision on the Cardinals' starting quarterback between Kyler Murray (hamstring) and McCoy for Monday's game versus the 49ers will be made later this week. McCoy filled in for Murray this past Sunday at the Rams, completing 26 of 37 passes for 238 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in a 27-17 win. At the same time, McCoy also missed two plays to have his upper left leg wrapped before returning to the game. If he gets the nod over Murray in Week 11, McCoy could…read more

  • Workmanlike effort in win

    McCoy completed 26 of 37 passes for 238 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: In a battle of backup QBs with Kyler Murray (hamstring) and Matthew Stafford (concussion) both sidelined, McCoy came out on top over John Wolford with a solid performance that included a six-yard TD strike to fellow old-timer A.J. Green just before halftime. The 36-year-old Cardinal could return to the bench in Week 11 if Murray's ready to go, but if not McCoy would likely be under center for a tough NFC West battle against the 49ers. Although he picked up his own lower-body injury during the…read more

  • Back in Sunday's game

    McCoy (undisclosed) returned to Sunday's contest at the Rams.

    Analysis: Subbing in for an inactive Kyler Murray (hamstring) on Sunday, McCoy stayed on the turf for a spell in the middle of the third quarter after being called for intentional grounding. He required some on-field attention and then went to the sideline tent, after which he was spotted with a wrap on his upper left leg, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com. That said, McCoy was able to swap back in for Trace McSorley for the start of the Cardinals' next possession and continued to direct the offense.

  • Exits due to injury Sunday

    McCoy was forced out of Sunday's game at the Rams due to an undisclosed injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy was getting a spot start for Kyler Murray, who is inactive Week 10 due to a hamstring injury. But McCoy stayed down on the turf after getting called for intentional grounding in the third quarter and required medical attention before seeming to favor his left hamstring as he made his way to the sideline tent. If McCoy is unable to return, Trace McSorley will direct the Cardinals offense for the rest of Sunday's outing.

  • Starting for Murray on Sunday

    McCoy will start in place of Kyler Murray (hamstring) on Sunday at the Rams, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Murray's availability came down to a game-time decision, and the Cardinals are exercising caution with their franchise signal-caller due to the hamstring injury that contained him to two limited practices during Week 10 prep. In three spot starts for Murray last season, McCoy completed 68 of 90 passes (75.6 percent) for 684 yards, three touchdowns and one interception and had 14 carries for 40 yards.

  • Trending toward Week 10 start

    McCoy appears likely to start Sunday's game against the Rams with top quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) listed as questionable and considered a game-time decision but still viewed as unlikely to play, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: According to Fowler, the Cardinals are going to evaluate Murray in pregame warmups prior to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff before making a call on his status, but a source familiar with the quarterback's health has "expressed skepticism" on his chances of getting cleared to play. Murray managed only two limited practices this week on account of the hamstring issue, and given how important having full mobility is to his success, the Cardinals could be motivated to hold him out this week with the…read more

  • Set to return

    McCoy (calf) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: McCoy strained his calf immediately prior to the start of the regular season and has been sidelined since. He'll likely serve as Arizona's backup quarterback for Sunday's game at Seattle.

  • Nearing return

    McCoy (calf) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday.

    Analysis: McCoy has missed the minimum four games since being placed on IR on Sept. 7. The veteran quarterback will have up to three weeks to be placed on the active roster, or he'll be forced to miss the rest of the season. Once activated, McCoy is expected to be the backup to Kyler Murray, although he likely has competition with Trace McSorley currently handling the role.

  • Strains calf, placed on IR

    The Cardinals placed McCoy on injured reserve Wednesday due to a calf strain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: McCoy's injury will keep him out at least four contests. In a corresponding move, Arizona promoted Trace McSorley from the practice squad, setting him up to serve as starting quarterback Kyler Murray's backup through Week 4.

  • Won't play in preseason opener

    McCoy will sit out Friday's preseason game against the Bengals, as he rests his arm, Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic reports.

    Analysis: This issue doesn't figure to be a great concern for McCoy, as the veteran quarterback is likely dealing with typical training camp fatigue from consistent throwing. Along with McCoy, Kyler Murray, who is nursing some wrist soreness, is also expected to watch Friday's game from the sidelines. As a result Trace McSorley and Jarrett Guarantano are in line to share QB reps in the team's preseason opener.

  • Gets two-year deal from Arizona

    McCoy agreed Monday to re-sign with the Cardinals on a two-year, $7.5 million deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McCoy will be guaranteed $6 million to stick around as Kyler Murray's backup after he played the 2021 campaign on a one-year, $1.2 million contract. The 35-year-old earned the salary bump by helping to keep the Cardinals afloat while Murray was sidelined from Weeks 9 through 11 with an ankle injury. During that stretch, McCoy led Arizona to wins over San Francisco and Seattle while completing 75.6 percent of his passes for 684 yards, three touchdowns and one interception to go with 40 yards on…read more

  • Ready for Week 18

    McCoy (migraine) wasn't included Wednesday on Arizona's initial Week 18 injury report, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: A late addition to the Cardinals' injury report Week 17, McCoy was ultimately active as Kyler Murray's backup in Arizona's win over Dallas. As per usual, McCoy didn't play any snaps, but his omission from the Week 18 injury report implies that he's healthy heading into the regular-season finale against the Seahawks.

  • Late addition to injury report

    McCoy was added to the injury report ahead of Sunday's contest against the Cowboys with a migraine and is listed as questionable, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: McCoy is the primary backup to Kyler Murray, so if he is unable to suit up, Trace McSorley would likely take over in Week 17. However, barring an injury to Murray, neither backup is expected to see the field. More information about McCoy's status will likely be given closer to the 4:25 PM ET kickoff.

  • Returning to No. 2 role

    McCoy is expected to serve as the Cardinals' backup quarterback Sunday against the Bears after head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Kyler Murray (ankle) will return to the lineup this week following a three-game absence, Stacey Dales of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: McCoy proved to be a capable replacement while Murray was sidelined for the past three games, despite not having top wideout DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) at his disposal for any of those contests. The veteran signal-caller guided Arizona to a 2-1 record sans Murray and Hopkins, completing 75.6 percent of his throws for 7.6 yards per attempt and a 3:1 TD:INT while adding 40 yards on the ground. Though McCoy is unlikely to see extended action again this season so long as Murray remains healthy,…read more

  • Strong in road start

    McCoy completed 35 of 44 pass attempts for 328 yards and two touchdowns against Seattle on Sunday.

    Analysis: With Kyler Murray (ankle) out again, McCoy was asked to step in as starter for the divisional road matchup -- the second divisional road matchup of McCoy's three-game stint as starter. That's normally a lot to put on a backup, but McCoy did a good job and kept the Arizona offense steady throughout the decisive victory, just as he did against the 49ers in Week 9. The Cardinals get a bye in Week 12 before facing Chicago the following week, and by then Murray should be able to step back into the…read more

  • Active and starting Sunday

    McCoy (pectoral) is active for Sunday's contest in Seattle, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: With Kyler Murray still nursing an ankle sprain, the Cardinals will roll with the healthiest of their top two quarterbacks Week 11. McCoy was able to practice Wednesday through Friday and even capped the week with a full practice, so he should be able to gut out his own pectoral strain. However, he won't have DeAndre Hopkins (inactive/hamstring) or Chase Edmonds (IR/ankle) at his disposal, leaving A.J. Green, Christian Kirk, Rondale Moore, Zach Ertz and James Conner as the top skill-position…read more

  • Likely to start again

    McCoy (pectoral) is likely to make his third straight start under center in place of Kyler Murray (ankle) Sunday against Seattle, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Both quarterbacks officially carry the questionable tag, but McCoy appears to be in a better place health-wise than Murray is with his high-ankle sprain. McCoy left last week's loss to the Panthers with a pectoral strain and didn't return. He was then limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday, but he upgraded to full activity Friday, while Murray remained a limited participant for the second day in a row. The Cardinals likely won't officially announce McCoy as their Week 11 starter until after…read more

    McCoy (pectoral) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: According to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site, McCoy upgraded to full participation in practice Friday after limited showings Wednesday and Thursday, so the veteran signal-caller will more than likely be ready to go come Sunday. The bigger question is whether he'll pick up a third consecutive start, or if he'll revert to his customary backup role in the event Kyler Murray (ankle) returns from a two-game absence. After closing the week with a pair of limited practices, Murray is…read more

    Analysis: Both of the Cardinals' top two quarterbacks are dealing with injuries, with regular starter Kyler Murray also limited due to an ankle sprain. Murray has missed two games in a row due to the injury, and McCoy, who has earned starts on both occasions, was knocked out of this past Sunday's loss to the Panthers with a strained pectoral. If healthy enough to play Sunday in Seattle, Murray will direct the offense, but McCoy and Chris Streveler are the options to cover for him if he needs more time to…read more

    Analysis: McCoy has filled in for an absent Kyler Murray (ankle) for most of the past two games, completing 33 of 46 passes for 356 yards, one touchdown and one interception while turning eight carries into 22 yards. However, McCoy made an early exit in last Sunday's loss to the Panthers and eventually was diagnosed with a strained pectoral. Per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site, head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Wednesday that McCoy is "OK," while Murray "has just gotten better every day."…read more

  • Diagnosed with strain

    McCoy was diagnosed Monday with a pectoral strain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: McCoy was removed from Sunday's loss to the Panthers in the third quarter and was unable to return to the contest. However, he doesn't appear to be dealing with a major injury, and he'll likely be available to start Week 11 against Seattle if Kyler Murray (ankle) isn't cleared to return from a two-game absence.

  • Injury is to pectoral

    Coach Kliff Kingsbury clarified after Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Panthers that McCoy left the game due to a pectoral injury, Kent Somers of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Analysis: The severity of McCoy's injury is yet to be determined, but the quarterback was unable to come back into the game after initially being deemed questionable to return. If neither McCoy nor Kyler Murray (ankle) are ready to return to action against the Seahawks in Week 11, the Cardinals will presumably turn to Chris Streveler, who replaced McCoy against Carolina.

    McCoy suffered a chest injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game versus the Panthers.

    Analysis: McCoy got banged up on a sack and had to yield the offense to fellow reserve Chris Streveler with Kyler Murray (ankle) missing his second consecutive contest. Prior to his exit, McCoy completed 11 of 20 passes for 107 yards and one interception and had one carry for minus-1 yard.

  • Getting another spot start Sunday

    McCoy will be the Cardinals' starting quarterback in place of Kyler Murray (ankle) for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Murray appeared to be a bit healthier this week than he was during Week 9 prep, actually making an appearance on the practice field as a limited participant Friday. The Cardinals took a decision on Murray down to the wire but ultimately opted to keep him sidelined due to the sprained ankle he suffered during a Week 8 loss to the Packers. McCoy fared well in place of Murray last Sunday at San Francisco, completing 22 of 26 passes for 249 yards and one touchdown while supplying 23 more yards on…read more

  • Another start likely on tap

    McCoy appears on track to make a second straight start Sunday against the Panthers with top quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) listed as questionable but considered unlikely to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Just like last week, the Cardinals are viewing Murray as a game-day decision, though the third-year signal-caller appears to be at least slightly healthier for Week 10 after turning in a limited practice Friday. In any case, Murray doesn't seem to have demonstrated enough progress in his recovery from the sprained ankle to leave the Cardinals optimistic that he'll be available to play, so McCoy will be prepared to make another start after he proved to be an efficient game manager (22-for-26 for…read more

  • Efficient in Sunday's win

    McCoy completed 22 of 26 passes for 249 yards and a touchdown and gained 23 yards on seven carries in Sunday's 31-17 win over the 49ers.

    Analysis: Getting the start in place of Kyler Murray (ankle), McCoy mostly relied on the Cards' running game to keep the chains moving, but the veteran QB made few mistakes when he did need to air it out. Assuming Murray is able to return to the lineup in Week 10 against the Panthers, McCoy will return to his backup duties.

    McCoy will start for an inactive Kyler Murray (ankle) on Sunday at San Francisco, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Arizona has opted to keep Murray in street clothes while he tends to a medial ankle sprain, allowing McCoy to earn his first start in a Cardinals uniform. In 47 career appearances (30 starts) with five different teams, McCoy has averaged 137.3 yards per game and tossed 30 touchdowns versus 28 interceptions. But in this outing, he won't be afforded the luxuries of DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring, inactive) and A.J. Green (reserve/COVID-19 list), meaning his options at wide receiver are Christian…read more

  • Appears poised for Week 9 start

    McCoy looks to be on track to start under center Sunday against the 49ers with Kyler Murray (ankle) facing an "uphill battle" to gain clearance for the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Arizona lists Murray and top wideout DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) as questionable for the contest, but according to Rapoport, the Arizona staff doesn't have a "ton of optimism" either player will be available after neither took part in practice this week. Murray will go through a pregame warmup Sunday before the Cardinals decide on his status, but he appears to be trending toward a spot on the inactive list, which will be unveiled 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Staying prepared for possible start

    McCoy took all the reps with the first-team offense during practices Wednesday through Friday to keep himself prepared to start in the event Kyler Murray (ankle) is unable to play Sunday against the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Arizona head coach Kliff Kingsbury reiterated Friday that despite not taking reps on the field during practice this week, Murray has continued to stay on top of the Cardinals' game plan and hasn't been ruled out from starting Sunday. For now, Kingsbury is terming Murray as a game-day decision, as the Cardinals want to see how he looks following two more days of rest before making a call on his status Sunday morning ahead of the team's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If Murray hasn't made enough progress…read more

  • Signs with Cardinals

    McCoy signed a one-year contract with the Cardinals on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McCoy played in four games (two starts) with the Giants last season because Daniel Jones had a hamstring injury. During that time, the 34-year-old quarterback completed 61 percent of his passes for 375 yards (5.7 YPA), a touchdown and an interception. McCoy will serve as a backup to Kyler Murray (ankle) in Arizona.

  • Two starts in 2020

    McCoy completed 40 of 66 pass attempts for 375 yards, one touchdown and one interception across four games (two starts) for the Giants in 2020.

    Analysis: McCoy started two games for the Giants while Daniel Jones dealt with injury, Week 13 against the Seahawks and Week 15 versus the Browns. The veteran managed New York's offense to a victory in Seattle, but he was then held to 221 passing yards without a touchdown or interception in a loss to Cleveland. Coming off a respectable showing in an underwhelming offense, McCoy is in line to secure another backup gig when he hits free agency this offseason.

  • Bound for backup role

    McCoy is expected to return to a backup role Sunday against the Ravens with Daniel Jones (ankle/hamstring) on track to start under center, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Giants list Jones as questionable ahead of the Week 16 contest, but the second-year signal-caller looks poised to return from a one-game absence after he was able to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday through Friday. While Jones was sidelined in the Giants' Week 15 loss to the Browns, McCoy presided over an underwhelming offense, completing 19 of 31 attempts for 221 yards and no turnovers while leading New York to only six points on the night.

  • Average performance in SNF loss

    McCoy completed 19 of 31 pass attempts for 221 yards and no touchdowns or interceptions in Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: If we were to ever assign a universal benchmark to describe the cutoff for an "acceptable" NFL quarterback stat line, McCoy's final results may serve as the best example. He wasn't bad by any means, but he certainly was not good either. The 34-year-old is a solid veteran backup quarterback that can protect the ball and move the chains on a team with a good running game. Starter Daniel Jones (ankle/hamstring) remains sidelined, but his status for next week's matchup against the Ravens has yet to…read more

  • Starting again Sunday

    McCoy will start for an unavailable Daniel Jones (ankle/hamstring) in Sunday's contest versus the Browns, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Even if Jones was active, the Giants were expecting to go with McCoy under center. In his sole start for Jones back in Week 13 at Seattle, McCoy completed 13 of 22 passes for 105 yards, one touchdown and one interception in a 17-12 upset win.

  • Trending toward Sunday night start

    McCoy is expected to start against the Browns on Sunday night, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McCoy, who began his NFL career as a third-round pick by the Browns back in 2010, looks like he'll get a chance to helm the Giants' offense against his former team. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network was more definitive in his phrasing, as he reported that McCoy "will" start Sunday. Daniel Jones (hamstring/ankle) previously missed Week 13 against Seattle, a game in which McCoy mustered up 101 passing yards and a 1:1 TD:INT ratio. Former Cleveland coach Freddie Kitchens is also set to call plays…read more

  • Could make second start Sunday

    McCoy took the first reps with the first-team offense at Friday's practice and could start Sunday's game against the Browns with Daniel Jones (ankle/hamstring) listed as questionable for the contest, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: McCoy picked up a start Week 13 against Seattle while Jones was sidelined with a right hamstring injury, but the latter was back in action for last week's loss to the Cardinals, only to exit early with a left ankle sprain. Though Jones was able to practice on a limited basis in each of the Giants' three practices this week, he didn't look to be moving around particularly well in the first and third of those sessions, which were both open to the media. Given that Jones' compromised mobility…read more

  • Manages Giants to victory

    McCoy completed 13 of 22 passes for 105 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Week 13 against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: The Giants relied heavily on their rushing attack and defense, limiting McCoy's opportunity to take to the air. His only touchdown came late in the third quarter after the Giants took over on a short field and utilized four consecutive rush attempts to move to the six-yard line. Once able to supplement his passing with his legs, the 34-year-old McCoy was able to muster only two yards on two rushing attempts. It remains to be seen whether Daniel Jones (hamstring) will remain sidelined for a Week…read more

  • Week 13 start awaits

    McCoy is on track to start at quarterback Sunday against the Seahawks with Daniel Jones (hamstring) listed as doubtful for the contest, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: Though Jones was able to make it back on the practice field Friday as a limited participant, McCoy still handled the first-team offense reps for the third straight day, according to Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. The Giants thus appear poised to proceed with McCoy as No. 1 signal-caller Week 13, marking the 34-year-old's first NFL start since Week 5 of the 2019 season, when he was with Washington. As Vacchiano points out, offensive coordinator Jason Garrett said that a Giants offense…read more

  • Taking first-team reps

    Giants head coach Joe Judge said McCoy will handle most of the reps with the first-team offense at practice Wednesday, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: With Daniel Jones tending to a hamstring injury, McCoy will cover for the second-year signal-caller during his recovery period. In this past Sunday's win against the Bengals, McCoy came on in relief of Jones and completed six of 10 passes for 31 yards and compiled seven yards on five carries. If Jones sits out this weekend at Seattle, McCoy is slated to start his first game since Week 5 of last season with Washington.

  • Completes six passes in relief

    McCoy completed 6 of 10 pass attempts for 31 yards and carried five times for seven yards during Sunday's 19-17 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: McCoy, who entered the game after Daniel Jones (hamstring) went down with an injury, was rather conservative as a passer while the team leaned on the defense and running game to grind out the win. Jones appeared to be in a great deal of pain and seems to be in danger of missing next Sunday's matchup with the Seahawks. That would presumably propel McCoy into the starting role, but he performed poorly in his only extended action against the Patriots earlier this season and would be a relatively…read more

  • Joins G-Men for backup gig

    McCoy is signing with the Giants, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Giants also have Alex Tanney under contract, but McCoy should be in good position to win the No. 2 quarterback job behind starter Daniel Jones. The 33-year-old has 28 NFL starts to his name, but just three of those have come in the past five years.

  • Stays behind in Texas

    McCoy did not return to Washington with the team after Sunday's 47-16 loss in Dallas, Michael Phillips of Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

    Analysis: This may just be a matter of convenience for a player with roots in Texas, but it could also be taken as a sign that McCoy either plans to retire or will join a new team for 2020. The 33-year-old made his lone appearance of 2019 in a 33-7 loss to the Patriots back in Week 5, completing 18 of 27 passes for 122 yards, with no touchdowns, an interception and six sacks. McCoy's contract will expire at the start of the new league year unless he signs an extension beforehand. His overall track record…read more

  • Third on depth chart

    McCoy will be the Redskins' No. 3 quarterback moving forward behind rookie Dwayne Haskins and Case Keenum, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: On Monday, interim coach Bill Callahan named Haskins the starter for the rest of the season, which leaves Keenum and McCoy as reserves. Keenum remains in the concussion protocol, so McCoy could end up serving as the Redskins' backup QB on Sunday versus the Jets and beyond.

  • Will be active Sunday

    McCoy will serve as Washington's backup quarterback Sunday at Buffalo, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: Dwayne Haskins is set to make the first start of his career with Case Keenum (concussion) sidelined, thrusting McCoy into the No. 2 role. McCoy has been a healthy scratch since starting Week 5, when he completed 18 of 27 passes for 122 yards and one interception.
