The Philadelphia Eagles have confirmed that RB LeSeaon McCoy (concussion) has been cleared by doctors, and there's a chance of him returning to game action against the Washington Redskins in Week 16. McCoy hasn't played since suffering a severe concussion back in Week 11.
LeSean McCoy cleared by doctors, could make fantasy return in Week 16
LeSean McCoy has been cleared to play and has a chance to return on Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.
Howard Smith-US PRESSWIRE
Rookie Bryce Brown has been playing in McCoy’s place.
Fantasy Impact: Hard to tell at this point. We’ll need to see Shady getting full practice this week before we can confidently declare him back.
There’s also the Brown factor. After a hot start, the rookie has hit a major wall, with just 40 yards the past two games and critical fumbles along the way. If Shady is ready to play, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Eagles give Brown a rest to get his head cleared.
