The Facts: Josina Anderson of ESPN reports that the Bills worry that McCoy won't be able to go when they open the season on September 13 against the Colts. A source told Anderson that McCoy is "not even close" to full speed and has missed so much work that there's "no way he can be in great football shape" when the season starts. "I can't say for sure he's going to be with us Week 1. I can't say that at all," the source said.

Diehards Line: McCoy has been sitting out the last two weeks with a hamstring injury and the Bills' public stance has indicated the former Eagle would be good to go come the regular season. Now As Profootballtalk.com's Michael David Smith suggests, the questionable status of McCoy for Week 1 makes the decision to cut running back Fred Jackson more surprising. The other running backs expected to make the Bills’ 53-player roster are Anthony Dixon, Bryce Brown and Karlos Williams, and they’d all be likely to share carries if McCoy is out. However, a league source tells PFT that McCoy himself is confident he’s going to be good to go for Week 1.
