The defensive tackle stayed in the NFC South last season by signing with the Carolina Panthers, recording 37 tackles and five sacks in his lone season in Charlotte.
Coach Mike McCarthy spoke before Monday’s practice about McCoy.
“He’s a perennial Pro Bowler, and he looks great. Can’t say enough about the shape he’s in and just the energy that he brings to our defensive front,” McCarthy said. “… He’s a great fit for us. We look for him to be a force inside.”
The 32-year-old McCoy signed a three-year deal with the Cowboys this offseason.
