Fantasy owners began panicking when LeSean McCoy picked up a hamstring injury in the preseason, which affected his Week 1 performance against the Colts last week.

Though the injury is a month old, it has yet to heal. That isn’t going to stop McCoy from giving it a try on Sunday. Adam Schefter was one of the first to report McCoy will suit up for the Bills crucial Week 2 game against the Patriots.

By running back standards, McCoy has enjoyed a healthy career. Though he’s suffered minor injuries in the past, they haven’t stopped him from playing. He hasn’t missed a game since 2012 despite more than 300 carries in each of the last two seasons.

Following his trade from Philadelphia to Buffalo, McCoy signed a massive five-year contract that put him near the top of salaries for NFL running backs.

McCoy has only played against New England once, and was held to 31 yards while with the Eagles.

Check back for updates on McCoy’s condition throughout the game.
