McCoy got his first taste of life as a backup last season with the Chiefs, but he didn’t exactly excel in the role.

Let’s face it. The 32-year-old McCoy is over the hill. He’s not as quick as he once was and he’s not as much of a threat catching passes out of the backfield as he was in his prime with the Eagles and the early part of his tenure with the Bills.

It’s nice that McCoy is familiar with playing in the AFC East and has a bevy of experience, but it doesn’t seem like he has much left in the tank at this point.
