The Facts:
Thanks to the ongoing lockout, HC Andy Reid had time to do an online chat with Eagles fans moderated by the Philadelphia Inquirer. Asked if McCoy would carry as big a workload as Brian Westbrook in his prime, Reid said yes. “I think last year LeSean showed that he could be a full-time RB and shoulder that load and we’ll continue to utilize him in that regard,” Reid wrote.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
McCoy had 285 touches last year. Westbrook only topped 300 twice in his career, reaching 368 touches in 2007. As PFT suggested, it wouldn’t be a surprise if McCoy’s workload picked up in 2011. Indeed, Fantasy Football owners -- especially those in PPR leagues -- should be quite pleased to hear Reid's confirmation.
