Buffalo Bills
Newly acquired LeSean McCoy appeared to injure his leg in camp today. Local reports are it’s a hamstring injury, but it has not been confirmed. Somewhere, Chip Kelly has that “joker-esque” smile on his face knowing he got rid of McCoy at the right time.
#Bills HC Rex Ryan: LeSean McCoy has a hamstring injury. The hamstring is in tact, not off the bone. We're getting an MRI on it
