Lesean McCoy has had an eventful off-season. First, he was accused of being in a bar fight that left two off-duty police officers hospitalized. More recently, he was accused of giving Marcus Vick’s “babymama them herpes” on Twitter.
Even if both of these accusations are false, this is clearly not the kind of off-season training I want from an early third round pick.
Trust me, there's more than just that.
Perhaps more concerning than his off-the-field activity is his recent injury history. He missed four games due to injuries to his knee and hamstring last season and finished the year with only 895 yards and 3 touchdowns on the ground.
McCoy’s coach, Rex Ryan, can’t even keep all the injuries straight, seemingly unsure if McCoy is currently dealing with an ankle or hamstring issue. The Bills plan to limit McCoy’s training camp reps to help him deal with these injuries.
There's just too much risk given his current cost.
