Erik McCoy
C - New Orleans Saints - Questionable
Week 17 Outlook
Availability
Erik McCoy was able to avoid a major injury to his elbow in Monday's game against the Packers.
Fantasy Impact
The status of McCoy remains unknown for the rest of the season with two games to go.
Saints coach Darren Rizzi said Erik McCoy should “be ready to roll" in Week 14.
Fantasy Impact
McCoy did not play in Week 13 after he was listed as questionable. His return would be big for the Saints offensive line.
Erik McCoy suffered a groin injury that is expected to require surgery that would sideline him about 6-8 weeks.
Fantasy Impact
It is a big blow to the Saints offensive line for the next month and a half or two. It is not considered a season-ending situation.
The Saints have ruled out C Erik McCoy for Sunday's game with a calf injury.
Fantasy Impact
McCoy left the game early on Sunday with what was described as "a lower leg injury". The standout center hasn't been placed on IR, so the team is hoping to get him back sooner rather than later.
With the 16th pick in the second round of the NFL Draft (No. 48 overall), the New Orleans Saints selected Texas A&M center Erik McCoy.
Fantasy Impact
It was reported earlier in the day that this pick might be part of a trade that sent Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen to Miami, but the Dolphins instead sent the pick to the New Orleans Saints. With the pick, the Saints selected McCoy. With Max Unger announcing his retirement last month, McCoy could come in and have the opportunity to start right away for the Saints.
