Eagles' McCoy, Vick not yet cleared for games
LeSean McCoy - RB - Philadelphia Eagles
Dec. 10, 2012 - 5:30 PM ET

Updating a previous item, LeSean McCoy and Michael Vick have not yet been cleared from their concussions to play in football games.

McCoy and Vick have been cleared to resume practicing, but neither has seen an independent neurologist. NFL protocol requires concussed players to be cleared by the neurologist before they return to game-day action. So Bryce Brown's fantasy owners may not have to worry about McCoy affecting their late-season star's Week 15 workload just yet. The Bengals and Eagles square off on Thursday night. Eagles beat writer Tim McManus considers it "difficult to imagine" McCoy or Vick being active for Thursday's game, "but time will tell."
