The Buffalo Bills are expected to have their star running back on the field for Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but how effective he can be remains to be seen.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, LeSean McCoy will play barring a setback in warmups.

McCoy sounded a bit pessimistic about his status earlier in the week, but it would be a surprise if he doesn’t play given what’s at stake. He’s dealing with an ankle sprain that he suffered only a week ago, so there is plenty of concern that he may not be able to make cuts like we’re used to seeing. Either way, the Bills are a far better team when their offense runs through McCoy.
