Anthony McCoy earned 14 starts for the Seattle Seahawks between 2011 and 2012, looking like a promising young player at tight end. Unfortunately, his second straight season is going to be marred by a torn Achilles tendon.
NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reports that McCoy tore his left Achilles tendon, according to a source informed of the player's prognosis. McCoy missed all of last season with a torn right Achilles tendon.
It's a devastating blow for McCoy, a sixth-round pick in the 2010 draft. The Seahawks were hoping he could provide quality depth behind Zach Miller and Luke Wilson this season.
