Top Erik McCoy News

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Will miss time with bicep injury

    Coach Kellen Moore said Monday that McCoy will be out "for a little bit" as he deals with the bicep injury he suffered during Sunday's game versus the Browns, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Per Jeff Nowak of WWL Radio New Orleans, Moore also said Monday that McCoy is not tending to a long-term or season-ending injury, and he does not believe it will require surgery. William Sherman filled in for McCoy at center after he exited during the fourth quarter in Week 9, but Cesar Ruiz also has experience at the position, and rookie fourth-rounder Jeremiah Wright is available should the Saints need him at guard.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Questionable to return for overtime

    McCoy (biceps) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns.

    McCoy exited the fourth quarter of Sunday's game with a biceps injury. The 16-16 bout has enterted overtime, and it is unclear if the center will return to the contest before it ends. Asim Richards, Jeremiah Wright or William Sherman would be next in line at center.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Participating at training camp

    McCoy (biceps) has been an active participant at the Saints' training camp, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    McCoy missed the final two-plus months of the 2025 campaign after suffering a torn biceps in October against the Bears. He is now back to full health ahead of the 2026 season, and he'll be back in his starting role at center.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Officially goes to IR

    New Orleans placed McCoy (biceps) on its injured reserve list Tuesday.

    The move comes as no surprise, as it was already known McCoy would miss the remainder of the season after he tore his biceps during Sunday's game at Chicago. Luke Fortner stepped in at center for the Saints after McCoy went down in Week 7, but the team could at some point opt to slide over Cesar Ruiz if Fortner proves to be a significant downgrade.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Done for season

    Head coach Kellen Moore relayed Monday that McCoy sustained a season-ending biceps injury during the Saints' 26-14 loss to the Bears on Sunday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    McCoy tore his biceps during Sunday's loss, which will sideline the seventh-year offensive lineman for the rest of the 2025 season. His loss is a severe blow to the Saints' offense, as the 2019 second-rounder was named to the Pro Bowl in each of the last two years. Luke Fortner entered Sunday's game following McCoy's exit, but it could be Cesar Ruiz who shifts over from right guard to center for the rest of the 2025 campaign.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Likely done for the season

    McCoy is believed to have sustained a torn biceps in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Bears and will likely miss the remainder of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The veteran center exited New Orleans' Week 7 loss in the fourth quarter, and the injury now appears serious enough to sideline him for the remainder of the year. This is a huge blow to the Saints' offensive line, as McCoy was selected to the Pro Bowl in each of his last two seasons. In his stead, Luke Fortner is expected to step in and start at center.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Won't return Sunday

    McCoy (biceps) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Bears.

    McCoy left in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest after sustaining a bicep injury and was quickly ruled out. Luke Fortner is now in at center for the Saints.

  • Saints' Erik McCoy: Healthy for OTAs

    McCoy (elbow) is taking part in the Saints' offseason training activities.

    McCoy ended last year on IR after injuring his elbow against Green Bay in Week 16. The veteran out of Texas A&M is now healthy again and is expected to serve as the Saints' starting center in 2025.
