Whats the risk in the Eagles playing McCoy this week?
He has a little fracture, so now he’s at more risk to break it and make it more severe. Fractures take about six weeks to heal — certainly it depends where it is. But you worry about things like if that fracture completely displaces does it puncture the lung, does it puncture another organ? That’s the problem with people having really heavy trauma. If he has just a little fracture, can he still carry a full load? If he does play, he’ll be in a flak jacket. But I doubt he’d see a full load like he did last week. He’s going to be limited. ROTOWORLD OPINION: The Eagles reportedly believe McCoy may actually be able to play this week, according to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen. Still, they’ll protect him if the risk of aggravation is too high as described above. Owners should be seeking safer options.
