LeSean McCoy exits practice with hamstring tightness, Week 2 fantasy value in doubt
The Bills had to take LeSean McCoy out of practice on Thursday due to hamstring tightness. We break down the fantasy implications.


McCoy had missed most of the preseason with a hamstring injury, so it flaring up again is cause for some concern. Thursday was not a planned rest day for McCoy, indicating that he could have suffered a setback. Should McCoy be unable to go on Sunday, Karlos Williams will get the nod in his place.
Fantasy Spin: It would be hard to envision the Bills not doing everything possible to get McCoy onto the field in a true AFC East showdown with the New England Patriots, but if he's far less than 100 percent, fantasy owners may have to explore more options.
Williams should be a priority add for all McCoy owners in the meantime, and injury reports will need to have watchful eyes on them in preparation for Sunday’s lineup setting. Fortunately, the Bills have a 1 p.m. game, which won’t limit the contingency plans if McCoy sits. If he starts, it’s hard to envision McCoy at anything more than a low-end RB2.
