LeSean McCoy injury update: RB questionable for Bills, fantasy owners [Update]
LeSean McCoy is very questionable to play in Week 7.

The Buffalo Bills are listing LeSean McCoy as questionable to face the Miami Dolphins. The Bills are “trying to push” McCoy to play through his hamstring injury in Week 7, according to ESPN reporter Josina Anderson.
McCoy had been the driving force behind Buffalo’s four-game winning streak now that he is being used effectively by new offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. The Pro Bowl running back ranks second in the NFL with 587 rushing yards to go with seven total scores.
As long as he is active going forward, McCoy is a must-start. That is how high of a level he is playing at right now, but this injury is threatening to sideline him.
Fantasy Impact: Yahoo! ranks McCoy as the 41st-best running back in Week 7. He faces a Dolphins defense allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to running backs over the last three weeks.
It looks like McCoy is a true game-time decision, so keep a close eye on this once the inactives are announced. If he is active, start McCoy in all leagues.
