Apparently, there are rumors out there that Gerald McCoy is injured. I’m....I’m not sure how, or why, or what happened there. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackles has had some injury issues throughout his career, but he played and started 15 games last year and looked fine at the end of the year.
Still, apparently fans are pestering him so much that he had to take to Twitter to tell them off.
Stop asking me am I hurt!! I'm fine!! I have the same bumps and bruises as every other NFL player. Stop believing everything you read!!

So, I guess that clears up a controversy that shouldn’t even have been a thing. But then controversies-that-shouldn’t-be-a-thing keep popping up among Bucs fans when it comes to McCoy. No one seems to know why.
McCoy has had a variety of injuries throughout his now seven-year career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, playing through some of them and having to sit out games due to others. He’s fine now, though, if we can believe him. And there’s really no reason why we shouldn’t.
