McCoy (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's preseason opener against the Browns, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.
This is hardly a surprise given that McCoy was just cleared ahead of training camp following leg surgery back in April before leaving Monday's practice early due to a foot injury. McCoy's absence for the preseason opener may be precautionary more than anything, but it could harm his chances of winning the No. 1 quarterback job over Dwayne Haskins and Case Keenum. The Redskins listed McCoy first on their initial unofficial depth chart of camp, but that may have been out of deference to his status as the elder statesman in Washington's quarterback room more than anything else.
