With padded practices beginning, injury risk is spiking. In Dallas, a major injury already may have happened.
Via NFL Media, the Cowboys fear that defensive tackle Gerald McCoy suffered a torn ACL during Monday’s session.
The diagnosis hinges on an MRI, but in many cases the preliminary evaluation and manipulation of the knee by doctors and trainers results in a fairly clear indication that the ligament has been torn.
McCoy, the third overall pick in the 2010 draft, signed with the Cowboys earlier this year.
