The Facts: McCoy will undergo an MRI on his hamstring after leaving practice Tuesday. McCoy was seen by multiple reporters grabbing his leg during red zone work. McCoy was taken to the locker room while clearly limping. HC Rex Ryan says the team hopes it is just a strain and confirmed the hamstring is "not off the bone."
Diehards Line:
With that said, Ryan was already talking about the "next man up" philosophy. Worth noting at this point veteran Fred Jackson has been out for nearly all of training camp with a hamstring injury. Rookie Karlos Williams, seen as a serious challenger for the No. 2 running back job, is expected to be out for multiple weeks after a "procedure" that Ryan dubbed "sensitive" -- although having him back by Week 1 seems possible. Reserves Anthony Dixon (calf) and Bryce Brown (hamstring) are also currently injured, meaning that Bronson Hill and Ricky Seale are the only two healthy running backs. Ryan is hopeful that Jackson, Dixon, and Brown could be back on the field next week. The Bills want to be a ground and pound offense in 2015. But first they need to get some running backs healthy.
