LeSean McCoy was carted off the field in the third quarter of the Buffalo Bills’ game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, and the star running back reportedly received some decent news when he underwent an X-ray.
According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, the Bills believe McCoy suffered a sprained ankle.

That is obviously much better than breaking a bone, but it remains to be seen how serious the sprain is. The Bills are still fighting for a playoff spot and were in good shape at the time McCoy went down. If they manage to reach the postseason, they will desperately need their best player on the field in the wild card round.
