No longer injured

McCoy isn't on the initial injury report for Sunday's game in Arizona, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: McCoy dealt with a thumb injury on his throwing hand during the preseason but is apparently fine for Week 1. He's locked in as the backup to Alex Smith.

Hampered by thumb injury

McCoy was absent from Sunday's practice after injuring his right thumb in Friday's game against the Broncos, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: McCoy was 3-of-8 passing for 19 yards and was sacked twice by the Broncos defense. The Redskins went out and acquired undrafted free agent quarterback Connor Jessop on Sunday, which could be a move corresponding to McCoy getting injured. As long as the veteran remains out of practice, expect Kevin Hogan to take snaps with the second-team offense.

Signs extension with Redskins

McCoy signed a one-year extension with the Redskins worth up to $7 million, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: McCoy is entering the final year of his previous deal, a three-year, $9 million contract he signed in 2016. His extension for 2019 has several clauses that will likely mean he makes less than $7 million if he operates as the backup once again, but the team appears to be content with McCoy as the backup to Alex Smith for the foreseeable future.

McCoy likely will stick around in Washington for another season as the No. 2 quarterback, Rich Tandler of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Analysis: The Redskins traded for Alex Smith and Kevin Hogan, but they merely swapped sixth-round picks to acquire the latter. While unlikely to beat out McCoy for the backup job, Hogan might convince the team to keep three quarterbacks if he looks good during training camp. McCoy spent the past three seasons backing up Kirk Cousins, who started all 16 games each year. The 31-year-old hasn't thrown a pass in the regular season since 2015 or started a game since 2014.
