Description: Eagles RB LeSean McCoy is active and will return to the field in Week 16. | Insight: McCoy is expected to see the majority of the workload with Bryce Brown getting the change-of-pace work. The two-week dream run for Brown is long gone and its back to reality as McCoy's backup, but the rookie will get enough work that fantasy owners must lower expectations for McCoy. | | |

Eagles coach Andy Reid hasn't revealed his running back plans for when McCoy returns but we assume he'll get his job back. As for Vick, he'll likely sit the bench behind Nick Foles the rest of the season. | | |

Description: Philadelphia running back LeSean McCoy, who suffered a concussion during last Sunday's loss to the Redskins, is doubtful for Monday's game against Carolina. | Insight: At this point, the Eagles will need a miracle to make the postseason so perhaps the team will opt to rest their injured star running back instead of rushing him back (no pun intended) for a largely meaningless Week 12 game against Carolina. | | |

Description: Philadelphia halfback LeSean McCoy suffered a concussion during Sunday's loss to the Redskins. | Insight: Talk about adding insult to injury.

He carried the ball 23 times for 123 yards as the Eagles won 19-17. | Insight: After four games, McCoy is third in the NFL in rushing yards behind Seattle's Marshawn Lynch and Kansas City's Jamaal Charles.

Description: Eagles running back LeSean McCoy was a huge part of the team's passing game, being targeted nine times in Week 1. He caught six balls for 26 yards to go along with 110 yards rushing. | Insight: The Eagles have always been a great screen team and if Week 1 is an indication they will continue to make use of McCoys' receiving ability. That's why McCoy is a particularly valuable running back in PPR leagues. | | |

Description: Eagles running back LeSean McCoy had an early fumble but he rebounded to post a 110-yard game. | Insight: McCoy carried the ball 20 times and also caught six passes for 26 yards.

Description: According to Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia, Eagles running back LeSean McCoy said he wouldn't mind having a lesser workload in 2012. | Insight: McCoy said when he gets tired he'll defer to backup Dion Lewis instead of being healthy, but this may just be a case of Shady being a good teammate. He averaged 4.8 ypc on 273 carries last season and also caught 48 balls for 315 yards, so he obviously can excel with a strenuous workload. Even if Lewis does cut into McCoy's touches, his goal line prowess should once again make him an elite RB in fantasy leagues. | | |
