| Colt McCoy's back as a starting quarterback in the NFL, at least for a week, and it's like riding a bike for McCoy, according to Giants head coach Joe Judge."Colt's got a lot of experience," ."He doesn't really mi s a beat. He gets in there, it's like riding a bike for this guy. He gets in there and he competes. Everything is very, very competitive with Colt."McCoy gets a Week https://www.cardinalsshine.com/Tyler-O-Neill-Jersey 13 start in 2020, his 11th year in the NFL, thanks to a hamstring injury preventing Daniel Jones from playing. That means McCoy leads NFC East-leading New York (4-7) against NFC West-leading Seattle (8-3) and Ru sell Wilson. Even when McCoy signed with the Giants, it seemed unlikely that the former Texas star could start a game deep into the season at the heart of a divisional race, but it's 2020, so why not? McCoy and the Giants are to the Seahawks, but if there was ever a year for such an upset, it's this one.MORE: Why did the Giants sign Colt McCoy?McCoy e sentially signed on with the Giants as the veteran replacement to Eli Manning, who had retired. Following Manning https://www.cardinalsshine.com/Jedd-Gyorko-Jersey 's retirement, the Giants had just Jones and unproven Alex Tanney on the roster.In March, McCoy signedfor $1.5-million guaranteed on a one-year deal that could reportedly max out at $3 million. While not coming at too high a cost, McCoy also brought 28 career NFL starts with him to the Giants. He'd also been in the NFC East since 2014 with Washington.With Jones in his second year after being taken sixth overall in 2019, McCoy wasn't expected to be anything more than an injury stopgap, the role he's filling in 2020 Week 13. New York likely wouldn't have had interest in a free agent like Jameis Winston who still hoped to start sooner than later, instead opting for a player who's mostly been a backup since 2012 in McCoy.Daniel Jones' injury provides Colt McCoy Week 13 startJones was knocked out of Week 12 against the Bengals with a hamstring injury, bringing McCoy on in relief to throw 10 pa ses (completing six for 31 yards). The hamstring problem was severe enough to keep Jones out of Week 13 and push McCoy into starting duty for the first time since Oct. 6, 2019. He completed 18-of-27 pa ses for 122 yards and an interception that day, a lo s to the Patriots.It's been a long backup tenure for McCoy after he got a bit more than a season to prove himself as a starter with the Browns in 2010 and 2011. His 6-15 record as a starter with Cleveland, combined with a 20:20 TD:INT ratio, meant McCoy wouldn https://www.cardinalsshine.com/Steve-Carlton-Jersey 't land another starting job in the NFL.Instead, he bounced around as a second-stringer, first in San Francisco behind Colin Kaepernick in 2013, and then in Washington from 2014-2019. McCoy was there as Washington transitioned from Robert Griffin III to Kirk Cousins, and he remained onboard behind Alex Smith and Dwayne Haskins in 2018 and 2019, respectively. McCoy wasn't needed anymore when the Washington Football Team brought in Kyle Allen in the 2020 offseason.Since the end of the 2014 season, McCoy has started three times. All three of those contests were lo ses, two in 2018 and one in 2019. At 34, McCoy may not be looking at many more starts after Week 13.McCoy at least gets a favorable matchup for his 2020 spot start, with the Seahawks allowing the most pa sing yards in football so far. It'll still be a tall task to keep up with Ru sell Wilson, but the Giants signed McCoy to step up in a moment like this and not wilt because he'd been in spots like these before.Whether or not it's McCoy's final start in the https://www.cardinalsshine.com/Drew-Robinson-Jersey NFL, he'll likely go to sleep at night with at least some contentment. According to , McCoy has made nearly $20 million in his NFL career. Not bad for someone making his eighth start since 2012.Colt McCoy NFL timelineApril 23, 2010 -Browns select McCoy with the 85th overall pick (third round) of the 2010 NFL Draft out https://www.cardinalsshine.com/Paul-Dejong-Jersey of Texas.Oct. 17, 2010 -McCoy makes first NFL start in a lo s to the Steelers.
