Unable to recover from neck injury, Colt McCoy placed on injured reserve

[MTK]

Colt McCoy had taken four steps up a staircase at Redskins Park on Tuesday afternoon when he stopped. He had a quarterbacks meeting to attend in seven minutes, and as he saw reporters approaching the bottom of the staircase, he turned to a team spokesman, who cautioned McCoy that he may be late.

“I need to give them some answers,” McCoy said.

And so McCoy descended the stairs, strolled a half-dozen steps into the locker room across the hall and spoke for nearly five minutes about a reality he had hoped frequently over the past two days he would not have to face.

His season is over.
