6 years agoWashington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy got called into action Sunday when starter Alex Smith was carted off the field with a horrific leg injury. McCoy completed six passes for 54 yards and a touchdown, adding 35 rushing yards in the 23-21 loss. The real fantasy impact here lies not in McCoy's performance, but in the fact that the starting job in Washington is now his. Smith's injury will require season-ending surgery. McCoy won't have very long to prepare for his next appearance, as a Thanksgiving Day showdown with an ascending Cowboys team lies ahead.--Chris O'Reilly
