Seahawks TE McCoy tears Achilles tendon

Seattle Seahawks tight end Anthony McCoy had surgery Thursday to repair a torn Achilles tendon he sustained during organized team activities on Monday.

McCoy is expected to be out for out least six months.

McCoy started seven games last year and made 18 catches for Seattle. Fifth round draft pick Luke Wilson could have a bigger role now with McCoy out.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree also tore an Achilles tendon during OTAs this week.
