Assuming the reps in his place will be tailback Bryce Brown. McCoy has until Monday to be cleared but it's unlikely that he will.
Fantasy Analysis: McCoy has not delivered the kind of output fantasy owners hope for in a high first-round choice. The dreaded concussion will be another setback as well.
When healthy, McCoy is a week to week must-start. He is a very explosive runner with big-play ability, but unfortunately the team as struggled as a whole. LeSean McCoy should be irrelevant his week, so keep him on your bench.
