Saints C Erik McCoy: Injuries "luck of the draw," can't change how I play

Saints center Erik McCoy has missed more games than he's played over the last two seasons.

McCoy missed 10 games in 2024 with elbow and groin injuries before missing another 10 last season with a torn biceps. That's left a hole at a key spot on the New Orleans line too often, but McCoy does not believe that there's much he can do beyond hoping for better fortune in 2026. mchezo.co.za

McCoy said he'll do anything he can to lessen injury risk, but that "the play where I tore my bicep was something I’ve done a million times" to illustrate that injuries in the NFL come down to the "luck of the draw" more than anything else. Given that feeling, McCoy said he won't alter his playing style in hopes of being on the field more often.

“There’s always going to be an awareness, but you can’t play with an awareness, you know what I mean?” McCoy said, via Luke Johnson of NOLA.com. “It’s kind of just got to be reckless abandon, and whatever happens happens. I’m going to keep that same mentality. I don’t want to be a guy that plays timid, that plays soft, that plays afraid to get hurt. If I play like that, I should quit football.”

McCoy went to the Pro Bowl after starting all 17 games in 2023. The Saints would welcome a reprise on both fronts in 2026.

5th over: England 43-0 (Salt 6, Buttler 36) Rana changes ends but Buttler don’t care, he kabblamoes his first ball over the leg side for SIX. Brutal. Buttler then snaps those wrists on a yorker and somehow gets it back down the ground for four. A single brings Salt on strike for the final ball of the over, he has a wild swish at the last ball and completely misses, throwing his head back and screaming some effing and jeffing up into the blue Nottingham skies. It’s not happening for him at the moment.

4th over: England 32-0 (Salt 6, Buttler 25) Axar Patel into the attack, beats Buttler with some extra bounce first ball. Slam! Buttler launches the next ball over the bowler’s head for SIX. Buttler picks up two through the covers and then swishes a pull through the vacant leg side for four. 13 off the over.

El poder de los que esperan en España: Merino, Ferran y Fabián dieron el pase a cuartos, como Olmo y Oyarzabal la Eurocopa de 2024

Fabián felicita a Merino por su gol a Portugal en octavos.

Pocos minutos después de derrotar a Portugal, Luis de la Fuente realizó una escueta descripción del gol que clasificó a España para cuartos contra Bélgica el viernes (21.00, La1 y Dazn): “Mikel Merino ha metido gol gracias a un pase maravilloso de Ferran, después de un pase de Fabi”. El relato se saltaba un toque de Rodri, es cierto, pero colocaba el foco en algo esencial para el seleccionador: Merino, Ferran y Fabián habían entrado desde el banquillo. Desde 2014 no se veía a un suplente de España asistir a otro para marcar en un Mundial, según Opta. Entonces Cesc le dio el pase a Mata contra Australia. Antes solo había sucedido otra vez, en 1982, cuando Quini asistió a Saura contra Yugoslavia.
