  McCoy (groin) logged a full practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. McCoy opened the week with consecutive limited practices, but the 2019 second-round pick finished strong with a full practice Friday. Even with the questionable tag, Rod Walker of The New Orleans Advocate relays that McCoy should be activated off injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game. If that's the case, McCoy would likely start as center as Lucas Patrick has been ruled out for a second straight game due to an ankle injury.

His 21-day practice opened Thursday, and he was listed as a limited practice participant in the injury report. McCoy figures to need more time to ramp up before returning to games, but it's unclear who will the the starting center for the Saints against the Falcons on Sunday. Lucas Patrick has missed both practices this week due to a calf injury, though Shane Lemieux (knee) is closer to returning from injured reserve than McCoy. If neither McCoy, Patrick nor Lemieux is able to play Sunday, Connor McGovern would figure to be the starting center.
