Gerald McCoy Fantasy Stats

Las Vegas Raiders defensive tackle Gerald McCoy (knee) suffered a season-ending left knee injury in the Monday night overtime win over the Baltimore Ravens, according to sources. The former multi-year Pro Bowler will miss the rest of the 2021 season after missing all of 2020 with a ruptured right quadriceps muscle, so it's another tough blow for the 33-year-old. Damion Square was added to the roster on Tuesday for more defensive line depth. Quinton Jefferson and Darius Philon should both see more playing time for the Raiders with McCoy now on the shelf for the remainder of the season. Las Vegas' defense hasn't been respected in quite a while, but the emergence of pass-rusher Maxx Crosby has people noticing early this year. They'll be off the streaming radar in Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive lineman Gerald McCoy is preparing for his eleventh NFL season and his first with the Silver and Black. The six-time Pro-Bowler hasn't played since 2019 after being sidelined with a preseason quadricep injury but has impressed thus far in training camp. The former first-round pick registered 54.5 sacks in his nine seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, tallying at least five sacks per season since 2012. Despite McCoy's pedigree, fantasy managers should wait to see how he plays in preseason.

Free-agent defensive lineman Gerald McCoy (quadriceps), a six-time Pro Bowler, doesn't plan to retire after missing all of the 2020 season due to an injury. "I just know I have so much more to give this game, even if for a short period of time," McCoy said. The pass-rusher had 54.5 sacks in his nine seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as one of their top defensive playmakers. McCoy spent the 2019 season with the Carolina Panthers and signed with the Dallas Cowboys last year, but he tore his quadriceps in training camp. The 33-year-old former first-rounder doesn't want to go out with an injury. His agent, Ben Dogra, said that a few teams have inquired about McCoy's rehab, but he doesn't expect any serious offers until after the draft this month.

The Dallas Cowboys released defensive tackle Gerald McCoy (quadriceps) via injury waiver on Tuesday after his season officially came to an end after suffering a torn quadriceps tendon. McCoy had signed a three-year, $18.3 million deal in the offseason, but the Cowboys had a clause in the contract that offered them a chance to cut ties with minimal repercussions in the event of a specific injury after the team identified McCoy as having "right knee chronic quad tendinitis and related structures." The veteran pass-rusher will lose out on $2.5 million in base salary guarantees. Dallas has hopes of re-signing McCoy once he's healthy, but it's not a guarantee.

Updating a previous report, Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Gerald McCoy's (quadriceps) MRI exam on Monday showed a ruptured quad tendon, and he'll miss the entire 2020 season. It's a huge blow to Dallas' defensive line after they signed McCoy to a three-year contract in free agency. McCoy has 59.5 sacks in his 10 years in the NFL. He spent last season in Carolina after a nine-year run with the Buccaneers. Dontari Poe is on the Physically Unable to Perform list as well, so the team's defensive line depth will be tested early on. Antwaun Woods and rookie Neville Gallimore will be leaned on more in the trenches with McCoy out for the season.

Dallas Cowboys veteran defensive tackle Gerald McCoy (leg) suffered a leg injury in practice, according to a source. The severity of the injury is unclear at the moment, but RotoBaller will update the situation when we know more. The Athletic's Jon Machota reported that McCoy had to be helped off the field after suffering the injury in individual drills, so it certainly doesn't sound good. He had a nine-year run with the Buccaneers and recorded 37 tackles and five sacks in his lone season with the Panthers last year. The 32-year-old signed a three-year deal in Dallas. The former third overall pick in 2010 has appeared in at least 13 games in all but one of his 10 NFL seasons and was expected to be a reliable starter in the trenches with the ability to pressure the QB up the middle. Antwaun Woods, Trysten Hill and rookie Neville Gallimore are in line to see more reps with Dontari Poe and McCoy banged up in camp.

The Dallas Cowboys agreed to a three-year deal with defensive tackle Gerald McCoy on Tuesday, according to a source. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. McCoy started every game last year for the Panthers after spending the previous nine seasons with the Buccaneers. The 32-year-old has 59.5 career sacks and has at least five sacks in each of the last eight seasons, so he'll help make up for the loss of Robert Quinn in free agency. McCoy had 37 tackles (15 solo), seven tackles for loss and 13 QB hits for Carolina in 2019. He made six straight Pro Bowls and was an All-Pro in 2013 with Tampa.

The Carolina Panthers and free-agent defensive tackle Gerald McCoy have agreed to a deal worth $4 million over one year. He has $3M base salary, $500K in roster bonus, $500K in 45-man per game bonus, plus incentives for $500K if he reaches 6.5 sacks, $1.5M if he reaches eight sacks and an addition $250K if he makes the Pro Bowl, with $250K if the Panthers reach the playoffs. He will receive just under $4M guaranteed, but the deal can be worth up to $10.25M if he reaches all incentives. He also gets to face his former employer, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers two times in 2019. McCoy can still be a productive IDP option, and he keeps the Panthers in the low-end No. 1 neighborhood among DSTs.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers cut defensive tackle Gerald McCoy this week and signed free-agent defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh to replace him. McCoy was the third overall pick in 2010, while Suh was the second overall selection in the same draft. McCoy has six Pro Bowl selections to Suh's five and 54.5 sacks in 123 games compared to Suh's 56 sacks in 142 career games. Suh will immediately occupy McCoy's three-technique position and can still do damage at 32 years old. Suh will receive a one-year deal. He has played in 16 games in every year the past seven seasons but wasn't that productive with the Rams in 2018. The 31-year-old McCoy isn't the player he once was either (12 sacks in the last two seasons combined), but he'll surely be scooped up on the open market by a team in need of pass-rush help.

Cleveland Browns general manager John Dorsey is believed to be interested in trading for Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy following the draft. He led Tampa in quarterback hits (21) last year, and the Buccaneers could use running back Duke Johnson, who has requested a trade out of Cleveland. McCoy, 31, was the third overall pick in 2010 and was a first-team All-Pro in 2012, 2013 and 2014. He had six sacks while playing 70 percent of Tampa's defensive downs (732 overall). With one year left on his deal, McCoy is set to make $13 million in 2019. Tampa spent their first five picks of the draft bolstering their defense.
