Shown red card against Minnesota McVey was sent off in the 46th minute of Saturday's clash against Minnesota United.

Impact McVey committed a foul at the beginning of the second half and received his second yellow card of the game, leaving his side with 10 men in an already tough matchup.

In any case, he's hardly reliable for fantasy upside until he can control his disciplinary struggles. Manu Duah will return from his ban in time to take McVey's place while the latter is ineligible.

Impact McVey will miss a second MLS game in a row due to a lower-body injury, as he has not yet recovered for Friday's clash against Nashville.
