LeSean McCoy was forced from Thursday’s preseason game against Pittsburgh with a right thumb injury.
The good news for McCoy and the Philadelphia Eagles is that X-rays came back negative and is not considered serious. According to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer McCoy avoided any fractures or torn ligaments.

On six touches against the Steelers McCoy racked up 50 yards and a touchdown. Right now the Eagles are listing McCoy as having a sprained thumb which is the best case scenario for an Eagles offense already down on running backs.
