Buccaneers' Gerald McCoy: Doesn't practice Wednesday

McCoy (foot) did not practice Wednesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

This was likely a planned veteran maintenance day for McCoy, who didn't turn in a practice session until Friday of last week before ultimately suiting up and recording a sack against the Chargers in Week 13. The same pattern is likely to manifest itself this week as the Bucs gear up for a divisional showdown against the Saints on Sunday. We likely won't have real clarity on McCoy's Week 14 status until after Friday's practice session, given that he could well be given the day off again Thursday.
