Report: Gerald McCoy Broke His Hand
September 14th, 2014
It’s unknown how serious Gerald McCoy’s second-quarter injury really was today, and how long he’ll be out of the Buccaneers’ lineup, but it doesn’t sound good.
Per ProFootballTalk.com, McCoy broke his hand.
Sure, he could get fitted for a fancy cast that would allow him to play, but that likely would limit his effectiveness, especially against his steady diet of double teams?
The Bucs have a short week with a game in Atlanta on Thursday night. The Bucs’ brass has an awfully quick decision to make.
And then there’s the matter of McCoy being a free agent after this season and poised for a big payday. Will that be a factor?
Joe wishes McCoy well.

Why couldn’t it have been McCown

He’s just one of those guys who can’t stay healthy. Another rGIII

Broken hand depends…put on DEPENDS and play….I can’t believe how this game has devolved…

He loves giving interviews. Shouldn’t interfere with that.

@Bucyou
He’s been healthy for two seasons in a row. And that’s been two pro bowl seasons.

???? He’s been healthy for years now, dimwit.

Looks like he still wanted to play on the sideline. Oh well maybe they cast him up and he uses it as a weapon vs Falcons Thurs.

hopefully its a small break, other than David, he’s the only other good player we have on this D….smdh!

Whatever happened to the jack Youngbloods of the game???

A lot of defenders will play with a club hand. Will McCoy???

Man-up McCoy and get on the field.
September 14th, 2014 at 7:47 pm
We’re f*£*}%# I just don’t see the bucs having any positive future without new ownership. I said that multiple times 5 yeArs ago.
September 14th, 2014 at 8:04 pm
Can’t believe he didn’t come back with the club hand
September 14th, 2014 at 8:31 pm
Wow just terrible comments. From wishing another guy got injured to basically calling a injured guy a wuss for not continuing to play. We don’t have enough info about the injury, plus with all the lawsuits about playing with concussions, are you even sure it doesn’t become a future liability issue letting/forcing an injured player back out there?

Lawrence Taylor played with a broken bone in his Ankle.
GMC is a Pu$$y

When ever I want to feel good about myself I watch McCoy interview Madonna and then ask for a kiss only to get shot down by a Grandma.
Madonna knows a loser when she sees one.

Put a big hammer cast on that hand and go to work.

Did any of you nimrods stop to think maybe it was a COACHES decision to hold him out? From what I saw, he was chomping at the bit to get back into the game.
September 14th, 2014 at 8:48 pm
Well, as a fan since 76′ I thanks the Bucs for letting me clean my house of all things Bucs. Year after year of no heart, no energy and incompetent coaches and overpriced bad players have finally taken its toll. Fans have deserved so much more for so many years and yet we continue to get bad coaches and worse players, that is when they are not “injured”. Sundays will actually be meaningful for me from now on.

@Pelbuc
Yeah, I tried that in ’83 after game #3 (0-3). Good luck with that. All my Bucs stuff was back up by Wednesday of that week. They’re our loveable losers and we are stuck with them for better or worse.
For those bashing McCoy, go somewhere else and work on becoming better human beings.

Amen Matt B

Can’t believe all these morons trashing McCoy. Miserable human beings who would probably be in tears if they broke their hand but they expect the coaches to put McCoy back in. Idiots….
September 14th, 2014 at 10:50 pm
Well said Matt B.
Pelbuc…wake up man.

Switch barron to SLB.
Goldson to SS.
And get somebidy faster in there to play FS.
Our safeties are a way bigger problem than mccown!
