  Panthers | Josh McCown, Duce Staley fired    Mon Nov 27, 02:16 PM

Carolina Panthers quarterbacks coach Josh McCown and running backs coach Duce Staley were fired Monday, Nov. 27.

Footballguys view: The Panthers are cleaning house on Monday. HC Frank Reich was fired, and now two of his assistants are gone as well. McCown was supposed to get the best out of no.1 overall pick, QB Bryce Young, but he's fallen short in that department. Young does not look like the player he did in college, meanwhile no.2 overall pick CJ Stroud is crushing it with the Texans.

  Texans | Houston narrows HC search to three    Thu Feb 3, 01:37 PM

Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon, former NFL quarterback Josh McCown and former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores are reportedly the three finalists to fill the head coaching vacancy for the Houston Texans, according to multiple sources.

Footballguys view: The Texans are still interested in Flores who was arguably the best head coaching candidate available in this cycle. Flores has met with the Texans twice, one virtually and one in person. He's suing the league but remains a top candidate for Houston. Flores has his coaching experience and Texans GM Nick Caserio on his side. There is a chance that Flores could mend fences with QB Deshaun Watson if he gets the job in Houston (Watson is a fan of Flores per earlier reports).

  Texans | Josh McCown meets with Houston again    Fri Jan 28, 02:20 PM

Former NFL quarterback Josh McCown is participating in a second interview with the Houston Texans for their head coaching vacancy Friday, Jan. 28.

Footballguys view: McCown will be a controversial hire if the Texans do indeed make him their next head coach. He has no coaching experience, so McCown would certainly be an "out of the box" thinking hire.

  Texans | Houston talks HC vacancy with Josh McCown    Fri Jan 21, 01:54 PM

Former NFL quarterback Josh McCown interviewed for the Houston Texans' head coaching vacancy Thursday, Jan. 20.

Footballguys view: McCown has drawn interest from the Texans before. Last year, McCown was of interest to the Texans and here we go again. He's a journeyman quarterback who has zero pro or college coaching experience. McCown is also getting little to no interest from other teams.

Footballguys view: Killins is a compact back like the Bears Tarik Cohen. He's electric with the ball in his hands as a runner or receiver in space. Keep an eye on him in super deep dynasty formats.

  Eagles | Josh McCown played with torn hammy    Fri Jan 10, 12:28 PM

Philadelphia Eagles QB Josh McCown (hamstring) played the second half of the NFC wild-card game Sunday, Jan. 5, with a torn hamstring and is scheduled to undergo surgery Tuesday, Jan. 14.

Footballguys view: McCown's hamstring was torn from the bone but he was still out there fighting. The veteran quarterback is set to be a free agent in 2020 but he will be 41-years old in the summer and likely headed for retirement.

  Eagles | Philly ousted in Wild Card round    Sun Jan 5, 07:49 PM

Philadelphia Eagles QB Josh McCown completed 18-of-24 passes for 174 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in place of the injured QB Carson Wentz (head) in the NFC Wild Card Game against the Seattle Seahawks Monday, Jan. 5. RB Miles Sanders (ankle) shook off an ankle injury to rack up a game-best 69 rushing yards on 14 attempts while adding three grabs for eight yards. RB Boston Scott ran for 25 yards on six attempts with 23 yards on three catches. TE Dallas Goedert had seven catches for 73 yards, while TE Zach Ertz had two catches for 44 yards on four targets. WR Greg Ward Jr. was the top receiver with three receptions for 24 yards.

Footballguys view: Once Carson Wentz was bounced from the game with a concussion, the Eagles chances of winning dropped...although they were in it until the end. Wentz had made it through the regular season for a full 16 games for the first time in his career but was knocked from this game after about nine minutes. It's an unfortunate end for an Eagles team that had to fight through a ton of injuries on both sides of the ball just to make it to the postseason.

  Eagles | PHI backup QB situation somewhat unsettled    Sun Aug 18, 11:44 AM

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said no decision has been made on whether QB Josh McCown or QB Nate Sudfeld (wrist) would be the team's second quarterback once Sudfeld's broken left wrist has fully healed.

Footballguys view: Sudfeld is a tall pocket passer and we've always appreciated his skill set in deep dynasty formats. McCown is the seasoned veteran who gives the Eagles quality depth if starter Carson Wentz is banged up again.

  Eagles | Josh McCown signed    Sat Aug 17, 11:01 AM

The Philadelphia Eagles signed free-agent QB Josh McCown (Jets) to a one-year contract Saturday, Aug. 17, according to multiple sources.

He'll work as the backup to Carson Wentz in 2019. The Eagles needed help at the position with Nate Sudfeld (wrist) and Cody Kessler (concussion) banged up.

Footballguys view: McCown had a 17-year football career and now finds his way to the TV studio as an analyst for ESPN. Largely a backup or bridge quarterback during his pro career, McCown was a solid player no matter where he went in 10 different NFL stops (and one year with the Hartford Colonials in the UFL).

  Jets | Week 14 injury report for NYJ    Fri Dec 7, 04:29 PM

New York Jets WR Robby Anderson (ankle), RB Isaiah Crowell (toe), TE Jordan Leggett (knee) and CB Buster Skrine (shoulder) were listed as limited participants for practice Friday, Dec. 7 and each is considered questionable for Week 14 against the Buffalo Bills. OT Kelvin Beachum (knee), RB Trenton Cannon (hamstring), CB Morris Claiborne (shoulder, neck), QB Sam Darnold (foot), WR Quincy Enunwa (ankle), LB Jordan Jenkins (shoulder), LB Darron Lee (not injury related), C Spencer Long (knee, finger, illness), QB Josh McCown (back), LB Kevin Pierre-Louis (thumb), WR Andre Roberts (foot) and TE Eric Tomlinson (elbow) practiced in full and each are off the injury report ahead of Sunday's game.

Footballguys view: Anderson and Crowell should play but both have unfavorable matchups at Buffalo this week. The Jets offense will get Sam Darnold back this week, but the Bills defense destroyed them in Week 10 and they are the best D/ST play in this AFC Least matchup.

Footballguys view: McCown might get Robby Anderson back and the Patriots defense isn't a tough matchup, but he looked like a shadow of the resourceful, daring quarterback he was last year in the Week 10 blowout loss to the Bills. He's a desperation play and one to target with a streaming defense.

Footballguys view: No surprise here. Rookie Sam Darnold has a foot injury that needs to get some rest in order to heal up. The Jets may have Darnold as McCown's backup this week as they only have two active quarterbacks on the roster. They do have Davis Webb on their practice squad but there's no word if they'd activate him to play as a backup or not.
