Suspension lifted McCoy's (knee) suspension has been lifted by the NFL, but he remains on injured reserve, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

Impact McCoy has served his six-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances policy, so he'll be eligible to return to action once his knee injury heals up. That won't be until next season, however, as McCoy has already been ruled out for the remainder of the 2021 campaign.

Lands suspension McCoy (knee) has been dealt a six-game suspension for violating the NFL's performance-enhancing substances policy.

Impact McCoy will serve the suspension immediately while he's on the team's injured reserve list. McCoy is already out for the remainder of the season, so this suspension won't have much of an effect on the Raiders' defensive line depth.

Hits IR list McCoy (knee) has landed on the Raiders' IR list and is expected to miss the remainder of the season.

Impact After playing in only nine snaps in a Raiders uniform in the season opener, McCoy sustained a serious knee injury that will likely force him to miss the rest of the 2021 season. To replace McCoy, the Raiders' added Damion Square, however, it seems Las Vegas is leaning toward giving McCoy's lost snaps to Quinton Jefferson and Darius Philon.

Done for season McCoy suffered a season-ending left knee injury in Monday's 33-27 overtime win over the Ravens and is expected to go on injured reserve in the coming days, Ian Rapoport of NFL Netw...

Impact Though Raiders head coach Jon Gruden didn't go into specifics about McCoy's injury when he met with the media Tuesday, he admitted that the defensive tackle likely would be in store for a long-term absence. Follow-up tests on McCoy's knee seemingly have confirmed Gruden's worst fears, cutting short the 33-year-old's 2021 campaign after he played just nine snaps. Considering McCoy also missed the entire 2020 season with a ruptured right quadriceps, his days as a disruptive force on the interior could be over given his advancing age and the fact that he's lost consecutive years to lower-body injuries. The Raiders added Damion Square to the roster Tuesday to help restore depth at defensive tackle, but Quinton Jefferson and Darius Philon are likelier candidates to pick up reps with McCoy out.
