McCoy apparently had multiple AFC West suitors after getting jettisoned by the Buffalo Bills this morning. The Los Angeles Chargers were seriously in the mix in an effort to add his services.
Reid, of course, was the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles when they drafted McCoy in the second round of the 2009 NFL Draft out of Pittsburgh.
